Silent Symptoms

~ A.K. Franco

Andi Wentworth – daughter of the esteemed yet cold-hearted attorney, Margeaux Wentworth—never had what you’d call a healthy mother-daughter bond. Their relationship has always been fraught with tension, manipulation, and unspoken resentment.

So when Andi and her boyfriend, Brett Miller, are forced to move back into her childhood home in Blackwood Estates, it’s a last resort – and a nightmare waiting to happen. To Andi’s surprise, Margeaux greets them with warmth and open arms. But beneath her mother’s polished charm lies something far more sinister.

When Andi suddenly collapses and is rushed to the ICU, unconscious and unresponsive, doctors are baffled. Tests reveal nothing. Answers are scarce. And her life hangs in the balance.

Lucy Harper, an ICU nurse, immediately senses something’s wrong – something that doesn’t show up on lab reports. As she takes a special interest in Andi’s case, Lucy becomes suspicious of Margeaux’s behavior and begins her own quiet investigation. But the closer she gets to the truth, the stranger things become – both inside the hospital and in her own home.

Is Lucy uncovering the truth – or being pulled into something she can’t escape? Who’s the real monster behind Andi’s silent suffering? And will anyone make it out before the darkness claims another victim?

A.K. Franco delivers a masterfully woven psychological thriller filled with complex characters, medical suspense, and chilling emotional depth. Silent Symptoms grips readers from the first page, expertly shifting between perspectives and timelines to unravel a mystery as haunting as it is human.

With impeccable pacing and vividly drawn characters, Silent Symptoms stands out as a dark, immersive thriller that explores the hidden dangers of family, trust, and the secrets that poison us from within.
