Shadows & Light

What if everything you believed about your past was a lie?

After her estranged father's death, Cassie Eskelson returns to her childhood home, now legally in the hands of her half-brother Kevin. The house is a vault of her fractured past, tied to her mother's mysterious disappearance—a trauma she can't fully grasp. But Cassie vividly recalls blood and glass. And a mother who vanished without a trace

They tell her it's all in her head—but the truth never stays buried.

Caught between Noah, her now ex-partner, and Ryan, a detective stirring old chaos, Cassie navigates trust and memory. With help from a sharp-eyed attorney and her loyal best friend, disturbing clues emerge. As secrets resurface, Cassie realizes the greatest danger lies not in the hidden truths but in what she's been forced to forget.

Emotionally resonant and quietly suspenseful, Shadows & Light is a story of inherited trauma, buried secrets, and the quiet resilience of a woman choosing to rewrite her legacy. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Megan Miranda, and Celeste Ng.
