The Ashridge Letters
An Epistolary Historical Romance Told Through Recovered Documents, Classified Transcripts, and Personal Obsession
When a sealed violin case is discovered in the rubble of a burned-out estate, archivist E.L. Cormorant is assigned to catalogue its contents. Inside: a letter never sent, unsigned documents, a scarf still smelling of smoke-and the first thread of a love story not meant to survive the war.
Told through a fractured archive of forbidden correspondence, military records, oral testimonies, and personal artifacts, The Ashridge Letters reconstructs the bond between two individuals on opposite sides of a brutal conflict. Their names are redacted. Their roles-one officer, one courier-could have made them enemies. Instead, they chose something far more dangerous.
Love.
As Cormorant sinks deeper into the story, the line between archivist and witness begins to blur. What is memory, and what is myth? Who buried the truth, and who dared to preserve it in scraps?
For readers of The Night Watch, The Song of Achilles, and lovers of stories where history turns into intimacy, The Ashridge Letters is a tale of what we leave behind-and what still manages to speak.

Through The Ash
I, Rain Ashford, came out of the fire empty - hollowed. My skin blistered, memory scorched clean. Nothing left but the smell of smoke in my hair and the weight of questions no one wants to answer. They tell me I had an apartment. A life. People who mattered. But when I look at them, it's like staring at strangers through glass-close enough to touch, too far to feel. All I know is the fire wasn't just flames. It was something else-someone else. And if I don't figure out how it started, I'll never know if I was the one who burned it all down... or if someone was trying to burn me out. Everything I was is ash. Now I have to decide what the hell rises from it.Complete
