Astrid Schneider and her family live in a ramshackle homestead which is just about as old as the hills. She is a typical girl besides the fact that three years ago, she had been succumbed to a rather nightmarish malaise.
Every now and then, she feels vulnerable with no reminiscences to hold on to, no embrace to lighten her silent fears, and no solace to keep her from falling apart. Not until she receives five letters with the pseudonym, Keaton. What she finds in these letters will strain her thoughts, unveil mysteries, and draws her back to the past.

North of Nowhere
A compass without directions. A legacy without answers. A silence that hides more than secrets. When a long-buried heirloom pulls its bearer into the wilderness, the path becomes anything but straightforward. Forests fold in on themselves, memories blur with myth, and the past returns in fragments: sometimes as whispers, sometimes as faces. What begins as a journey north becomes a labyrinth of grief, inheritance, and the haunting truths families leave unspoken. Each step forward draws her deeper into landscapes that shift like mirrors: a house that remembers, doors that demand choices, voices that tempt with endings disguised as mercy. What waits beyond is not simply survival, but a confrontation with the weight of love, silence, and the lure of surrender. Dark, unsettling, and threaded with mystery this is a story of what we inherit, what we carry, and what waits when we dare to follow a path that should never be walked.

Cassie Policarpio never expected her quiet life in the city to change so drastically. When she inherits an old lighthouse perched on the windswept cliffs of a small coastal town, she anticipates solitude and restoration. What she doesn't expect are the hidden letters she discovers within the lighthouse walls-letters written decades ago to someone named Cassie. The letters are tender, longing, and heartbreakingly intimate. They speak of promises, of devotion, and of a love so enduring that it seems impossible to belong to the past. Intrigued and unsettled, Cassie begins to unravel the mystery of the lighthouse keeper who penned them-and finds herself drawn to JM Pastor, a local historian with secrets of his own, whose presence awakens emotions Cassie thought she had long buried. As the lines between past and present blur, Cassie realizes that the love she's uncovering might not only change her understanding of history-it might change her life forever.Complete
