Remain is written by Nicholas Sparks with M. Night Shyamalan and is based on an original story developed by both men.

The story follows Tate Donovan, a New York architect trying to rebuild himself after the loss of his sister. On Cape Cod he meets Wren, and what first looks like an intimate romantic story begins to open into grief, mystery, and the possibility that the line between the living and the dead is not as closed as Tate wants to believe.

That combination of supernatural unease and emotional intimacy is the reason the project sits in an unusual spot on the site. It is part of the broader Remain project, but it also stands as a published book with its own audience, its own reading experience, and its own place in the Shyamalan archive.
