In The Keeper of Ashes, an unforgettable journey through the shadows of a nation's past, we confront the haunting weight of collective guilt and the lengths people will go to reconcile with history.

Set in the post-war years, this compelling novel weaves a tapestry of generational conflict, buried secrets, and moral dilemmas. The story follows Eleanor Moreau, a historian tasked with curating a controversial exhibit that uncovers the dark truths of her country's past. Her quest for truth becomes deeply personal when her estranged father, Sebastian, emerges from the shadows with revelations that threaten to tear apart everything she thought she knew about her family.

As Eleanor delves deeper into the archives, she faces mounting resistance from political powers, her own community, and even her own heart. In parallel, we witness the struggles of Victor, a young activist torn between justice and vengeance, and Martha, a grandmother desperate to shield her grandchildren from the shame she once endured.

The narrative explores themes of forgiveness, reconciliation, and the power of memory. With masterful prose and a nuanced portrayal of human frailty, The Keeper of Ashes asks: Can a nation truly heal without confronting its past? And at what cost does redemption come?

Perfect for fans of historical fiction and thought-provoking drama, The Keeper of Ashes will leave readers questioning the weight of guilt and the power of hope.
