The Silent Man ~ Songs To Stories Volume IX ~ By Britt Wolfe
Inspired By: The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived by Taylor Swift
Some wounds are louder than words. Some silences echo forever.
Aurora Lockwood was never meant to return to the house where it all fell apart. Not after the night her sister vanished. Not after the years of violence, of shame, of quiet complicity from the one man who should have protected them. But when her mother dies, Aurora is pulled back to the town that never asked questions—and the father who never gave answers.
In the stillness of her childhood home, ghosts stir. Secrets long buried begin to surface. And alongside her younger sister, Isla, Aurora is forced to confront the truth they were never allowed to speak: that silence can be just as violent as rage, and absence doesn’t absolve a damn thing.
The Silent Man is a raw, unflinching story of family, betrayal, and the brutal cost of looking away. For anyone who’s ever screamed into a void and begged to be heard—this is your story.

Exerpt From The Silent Man by Britt Wolfe
“I didn’t want you to fix it all. I didn’t need a hero. I needed a father who looked at the fire and didn’t walk around it. Who said, That’s my child, and you will not hurt her.
You never said that.
And now I can’t remember the sound of your voice except when it was asking for my quiet.
...Love without intervention is cowardice. Love without protection is passive. Love without truth is hollow.”
