Description
Set in a small Iowa town in the 1990s, this haunting novel follows a young video-store clerk who discovers unsettling footage embedded within a handful of familiar VHS tapes. As he and others try to understand who made the recordings and why, an ordinary community is drawn into a mystery shaped by memory, loss, and buried pain. Blending psychological suspense with quiet literary insight, the story explores the ways people use stories, images, and shared secrets to confront—and sometimes escape—the past.
