Five children. The same nightmare. No explanation medicine can reach.
When five children at an isolated Catholic treatment facility begin suffering from identical night terrors, American sleep researcher Eliot Ross is sent to investigate.
The symptoms make no sense.
The children describe the same sensations. The same fear. The same presence waiting beyond the edge of sleep. Yet every test, interview, and clinical explanation leads nowhere.
Determined to find an answer, Eliot begins documenting everything: recordings, observations, dreams, and fragments of testimony that refuse to fit together. But the deeper he digs, the more the investigation begins to change him.
The children seem to know things they should not know.
Old records suggest the nightmares are not new.
And certain questions, once asked often enough, may become invitations.
As the boundary between observation and participation begins to collapse, Eliot must decide whether understanding the truth is worth the price of uncovering it.
Tell Me What You Saw is a psychological horror novel about obsession, memory, and the terrifying consequences of looking too closely into the dark.
For readers of Paul Tremblay, Josh Malerman, Catriona Ward, and literary psychological horror.
