Some books are meant to be read. Others read you.

When small-town medical examiner Dr. Timothy Clarke begins the autopsy of a local girl, he expects tragedy-not terror. But buried among her belongings is a mysterious black book that pulses with an unnatural energy and speaks in whispers only he can hear. The moment Tim reads from its pages, reality begins to unravel: corpses vanish, memories twist, and the line between the living and the dead is erased.

As Tim descends into a waking nightmare, he is forced to confront the shadows of his past and the terrifying truth that some stories don't want to be told-they want to be lived.

Dark, gripping, and utterly original, What Reads Us is a chilling psychological thriller that asks: when the pages begin to turn on their own, can you ever close the book?
