Love in the Ashes

From the back cover

The dusty box held my father' s medal, a cold, heavy relic of a life shattered too soon.

Then the call came – a hospital, an unfamiliar number, and the dreaded news: my brother, Michael, was brutally attacked, barely clinging to life.

Memories flooded me: my father's dying wish to protect Michael, the years I spent raising him, only for this monstrous injustice to strike.

General Sterling, my father's esteemed colleague, watched with unreadable eyes, while Thorne, the man responsible, sneered about a "bar fight" and sent me chilling threats.

Police dismissed my pleas, the media shut down my story, and even Sterling' s socialite fiancée, Victoria, joined the chorus of dismissal, forcing me to confront Thorne alone and sparking a silent battle within me to unveil the truth my brother nearly died for.
