About this book

When a mother reports her nine-year-old son missing, the case seems tragic — but simple.
Until the timeline doesn’t add up.
As police uncover evidence hidden inside the family home, rumors resurface about the boy’s past - about silence, about strange behavior, about things that should have stopped long ago.
But the deeper truth isn’t about rage.
It’s about certainty.
The Pause is a chilling psychological thriller about generational violence, distorted memory, and the moment before a choice that can never be undone.
Because sometimes the most dangerous thing in a room isn’t anger.
It’s calm.
