In the forgotten town of Blackthorn Ashes, secrets linger like shadows, and every step draws you deeper into the unknown.

When investigative journalist Kim Namjoon arrives in Blackthorn Ashes, he expects to uncover a strange legend-a mysterious artifact known as The Veil, said to manipulate memories. What he doesn't expect is Arabella, a woman haunted by fragmented memories and an inexplicable connection to the artifact. Together, they are thrust into a web of lies, betrayal, and danger as they uncover the horrifying truth: The Veil is real, and someone in Blackthorn Ashes will stop at nothing to control it.

As Namjoon and Arabella delve deeper, the town begins to unravel around them. Disappearances, cryptic symbols, and distorted memories leave them questioning what's real and what's been rewritten by The Veil's sinister power. While Arabella wrestles with the ghosts of her forgotten past, Namjoon's pursuit of truth threatens to expose a conspiracy far more dangerous than he imagined.

But the shadows of Blackthorn Ashes hide more than just secrets-they hide watchers in the dark, forces determined to silence anyone who gets too close. As Namjoon and Arabella race against time to find The Veil before it falls into the wrong hands, they must navigate a treacherous game of trust and deception.

In a town where reality is fragile, and memories are weapons, can they uncover the truth before they lose themselves completely?

"Shadows of the Ashes" is a gripping tale of mystery, danger, and unexpected alliances. Perfect for fans of slow-burn suspense, strategic twists, and characters fighting to reclaim their truths.

Will she ever forgive them for abandoning her? Will they ever be able to unveil her secrets? Where was she for all those years? This is story of a girl who was abandoned by her brothers when she was seven. Now, after 9 years, her brothers brought her back home. How will she deal with them, simultaneously dealing with the terrors that haunt her every night? Sneak Peak- Once we were out, I stopped and turned to face my blood relatives and said, "Okay, now that I am out you don't need to act anymore. Now, you guys can go back to your house and pretend that this never happened. I will go to my house and will make sure that we will not cross each other's path, even by accident." I was about to turn back when Ezekiel held my elbow, stopping me on my track. I immediately snatched my hand back glaring at him and said, "Do not ever touch me again." His eyes showed an emotion of hurt that I am sure I read incorrectly because one thing that Kensington brothers are incapable of was getting hurt by any outsider. And that was what I was. An outsider. Sensing the tension in the atmosphere Aldric took it upon himself to say whatever his brother was about to. "You are going with us." He spoke. One thing about Aldric Kensington was that once he has made his mind, there is nothing in this world that can change his decision. This is the very quality of his that made my life a living nightmare, and this is exactly why I hate him more than any of my brothers. "Let's go Athaliah," Ezekiel said this time. That name. No one has called me by that name in six years. "My name is Zahra," I corrected and continued, "And I am not going with you." #1 in running on 2/2/25 #1 in babysister on 15/12/24 #1 in brothersconflict on 27/12/24 #2 in abandoned #2 in broken #2 in abusing #2 in pastabuse #2 in nightterror #4 in olderbrother #3 in brokenfamily #5 in mafiaprincess #9 in siblings #34 in siblingrivalry #34 in littlesister #44 in ptsd #51 in misunderstood #59 in mafia
