Dylan meets Kelsey when she's assigned to be his class project partner. Kelsey is a weird girl. She keeps to herself, wears gothic Lolita fashion and is allergic to water. Kelsey won't use any technology from after the 19th century, so she keeps an inkwell in her schoolbag and a quill, so that she can write notes. During a Halloween party Dylan finds out that not everything is as it seems. Why is he hearing voices coming from a closed well?
Drowned Silence is a gripping novelette. I would have loved it to be longer, because I liked Kelsey a lot and think she is a character that would do great in a full length novel. She's incredibly weird, but endearing at the same time. She is always being herself and I think that's unique when you're a teenager. I liked the combination of her personality with events that spooked me. Amy McNulty has written a thrilling and horrifying story and I absolutely loved it.

Great short story.
This is a little short I picked up. Sorry can't remember how I came by this but either free on Amazon or as a review copy.
This is a little gem to be honest. Not a long story so I will not ruin with a long review.
Great story and characters and there isn't much else to say. Prefect for a train or those moments when you haven't the time for a long story but enough to have a story.
More for teenagers and older children than horror of a budding friendship from the main characters that begins with a school project. Kelsey is a mystery to Dylan from how she dresses to being allergic to water and not using or likening anything before the 19th century...
