The Hushed by K. R. Blair
Perfect for fans of The Last Thing He Told Me and A Flicker in the Dark, The Hushed is a haunting paranormal thriller—infused with dangerous, forbidden romance—that introduces a chilling new kind of undead.
Eerie Ashwood may seem like a regular college student—working at a local diner and attending community college—but she’s not. She’s a Hushed, a living secret made of flesh and blood, born from the death of someone with something to hide. The Hushed blend in among humans but are driven by an overwhelming urge to reveal their secret to those it would hurt the most. The catch? Once they confess, they die.
Unlike most of her kind, Eerie and her brother, Fabian, can’t remember their secrets. All they know is their connection to the infamous Ironbark Prison fire, a memory clouded by smoke and fear. Everything changes when Eerie meets Logan Winspeare—the rebellious son of a fire victim—who is determined to uncover the truth behind his mother’s death. Eerie knows she should stay away from Logan and the mysteries of that night, but her curiosity—and her growing attraction to him—proves impossible to resist.
The closer Eerie gets to Logan, the nearer she comes to unraveling her secret—and sealing her fate. As she digs deeper, she discovers her secret is linked to something far more dangerous: an ancient legacy of vengeance, hidden for thousands of years, and a covert organization of Hushed determined to bring down the human world.
