Narration note: this edition uses digital voice (synthesised) narration.

Valerie Quinn once swore to protect the truth. Now, she’s buried it.

Ten years ago, her teenage son accidentally set a neighbor’s barn ablaze. Desperate to save him, Valerie—then a police detective—covered it up. The story should have ended there. But when an anonymous note arrives that reads, I know what your son did, the past ignites all over again.

As the blackmailer’s demands grow bolder, accidents start to feel deliberate. Valerie’s once-stable world fractures—neighbors whisper, her marriage falters, and even her son’s behavior raises terrifying doubts. Is he hiding something new... or is someone manipulating them both?
