Bet Swanson is back in Crane Hollow, the town she tried to leave behind ? but something unsettling is there to meet her. The familiar streets are wrapped in a strange silence, and the townspeople, once so welcoming, now behave in sinister ways. A shadow seems to loom over Crane Hollow, a darkness seeping into the minds and souls of everyone who lives there.

As Bet tries to reconnect with her past and with her mother, she realizes the town is hiding a terrible secret. A growing madness is consuming everything and everyone, turning Crane Hollow into a labyrinth of fear and delirium.

With a handful of allies, Bet digs into the mystery that has engulfed the town and faces the nightmares of her own past. The closer she gets to the truth, the greater the risk of falling prey to what is devouring Crane Hollow from within.

Some songs are not meant to be finished. And what is left half-sung... calls.

The Sound of Madness is a supernatural thriller about those who listen ? and about what, in the silence, is listening to us.
