About this ebook
Elara Vance is a woman who has learned to function on the edge of collapse. Since childhood, the same nightmare has found her — a tall figure in a dark suit, standing at the foot of her bed, watching. Waiting. Never speaking.
When a colleague recommends Dr. Aris Thorne and his experimental sleep device, Elara is desperate enough to try anything. The Oneiros Link works. For the first time in months, she sleeps. And in sleeping, she begins to remember.
A red ball with her brother's initials. A hole dug beneath an oak tree. Her mother's voice, low and urgent, in a room she wasn't supposed to enter: Don't say anything. Don't remember.
Julian disappeared when Elara was twelve. Everyone said he ran away. Elara has spent twenty years believing it — or believing that she believed it.
Now the Shadow Figure is back, and it's no longer standing still.
Behind Closed Eyelids is a psychological thriller about the violence of forgetting — and the cost of remembering everything at once.

About the author
Wind Amiras writes psychological and literary fiction that moves across the territories of thriller, horror, and mystery. His work explores the fractures in identity, the strange persistence of love, and the grief that reshapes the self — those moments when the surface of a person shifts and what lies beneath is unrecognizable even to them.
He is drawn to the dark edges of human experience — the unnamed fears that settle in the body long before the mind acknowledges them, the buried secrets that rearrange themselves into new shapes, the feeling that something is wrong beneath the surface before there is any evidence to confirm it.
Beyond fiction, he writes eBooks and articles on lifestyle, health, and personal growth — practical work that shares the same underlying conviction: that paying attention carefully enough changes what you find.
He is based in Jakarta, where he works as an entrepreneur and technologist. The instinct that runs through his professional life — to look beneath the surface of systems, organizations, and people — is the same instinct that drives his writing.
“Deliberate. Layered. Always reaching for something truer.”
