Espy Rojas lives in Whisper, Mississippi, but she has nobody to talk to except her invisible friend Sylas.

When Espy meets Tonka, a mysterious creature in a cicada husk, she is overjoyed to hear that Tonka can help her make Sylas real. After Tonka teaches Espy the secret skill of using the Lines, Espy realizes she can use her newfound power to coax her schoolmates into being her friends, too.

But just when everything should be going so well, Espy begins to wonder if Tonka's power might not be the key to friendship she thought it was.

A story that is as surprising as a river with a hidden undertow, Hush Hush is the second novel from author Remy Wilkins.

What people are saying about Strays:

"What’s not to love about this debut novel from Remy Wilkins? Replete with a brilliant concept, fast‐moving plot twists and turns, memorably quirky characters, and crisp writing. This is a delightful, creative romp. Highly recommended.” ~George Grant, author and pastor in Franklin, Tennessee

"Evoking C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters , Wilkins’ debut novel portrays cleverly named demonic characters who converse, plot, and war against angels, earthly beings, and even critters who are subject to 'The Name.'" ~Mary Jackson, WORLD Magazine
