You travel to San Felipe, Mexico, to retrieve a mysterious heirloom from your late Tía's crumbling seaside home. The house reeks of candle wax and secrets. Your mother insists you bring something back. Just one thing. But your aunt dabbled in brujería-witchcraft-and whatever she invited in before her death hasn't left. You tell yourself it's just the wind. The shadows. The grief. But the house is watching. Something is waiting. And if you don't find the thing you need soon, you won't make it out at all. Told in gripping second person, The Thing You Need is a fast, atmospheric descent into dread and the price of being part of a questionable family.
