Two strangers. One silent world.

Milan works six days a week to keep a crumbling house and a struggling family standing. Then the water takes him, and he wakes in the Hush: a vast, overgrown, impossibly quiet world of ruined towers, waterfalls and drifting golden light, with no people, no sound and no way home.

Days later, he hears something in the dark, and finds Tara. She has been alone here for months, carving tiny stone figures so the silence can't win.

Neither of them trusts the moment enough to break it. But two lonely people in a world with no one else can only stay strangers for so long.

The Hush Between Us is Volume One of Beyond the Hush, a young-adult fantasy romance told in full-colour, manhwa-inspired graphic novel art. It is a slow-burn story about grief, trust, and what it means to be truly known.

Full-colour illustrated graphic novel. 12 chapters.
