Synopsis

What’s the price for a little quiet? For Lena, it starts with a trip into a mysterious new store: Munteani's Curioddities Shoppe.

Lena has always been the invisible one, the quiet artist, the kid overshadowed by her parents' constant arguing and cruel school bullies. But when she stumbles into a bizarre new shop downtown, her life changes forever.

The strange and charming shopkeeper, Emile Munteani, doesn't want money. He offers Lena a gift: three gnarled, wooden figures called the Silent Sentinels. At first, they are just creepy objects for her shelf. But then they begin to work.

They know Lena’s deepest desires, her wish to silence the fighting at home, her frustration with bullies, her hunger to finally have the floor. They offer her a solution. They offer her a dangerous kind of quiet.

As Lena accepts the figures' help, she becomes more confident, more respected, and more feared than she ever imagined. She can see everyone's deepest secrets and force them to tell the absolute truth. But the silence is spreading, and the power is turning into a prison. The favorite foods she eats taste like ash, her skin is turning to wood, and the Sentinels are growing into giant, creepy shadows. The figures didn't just want to help her... they want to empty her whole world.
