The Hum series opens in 1989 in the village of Nuthampstead, England, where six-year-old Carys Ellis and her family, recently moved from the Welsh valleys, are plagued by an inexplicable humming noise. Carys experiences terrifying nighttime visitations she cannot share with her family. The novel walks the line between her mother’s bipolar disorder and the possibility that something genuinely alien is responsible, with the stakes rising toward the potential eradication of humanity.

E.B.E.: Extra Biological Entity (2022) continues the story. The series blends science fiction, psychological thriller, and horror, and is darker and more ambitious in scope than Carter’s other work.
