Nora has built her world small and safe. She works at a tiny library, tends to her sick father, and keeps her head down. The routine protects her from memories she refuses to face. Then a stranger walks into her carefully ordered life. This person knows things about Nora's past that she thought were buried forever. The stranger's arrival forces Nora to confront the trauma she has spent years avoiding. As danger moves closer, Nora realizes her quiet existence is under threat. She must choose between the security she has created and the risks that come with fighting back. The decision will test everything she believes about survival and sacrifice. "Night in Question" explores how the past refuses to stay hidden and what happens when a woman must face the truth she has been running from.
