What We Have Lost

In the tranquil town of Silverlake, death doesn't hold the same finality as it once did. The Returned - reanimated bodies of the deceased - are a solace to grieving families. But not every solace is comforting, especially when it disrupts the delicate balance of a family already on edge. After the tragic loss of Mark, Maya and her son Lucas are presented with the gift of Mark's second chance at life. But the Mark who comes back isn't the husband and father they once knew. As Lucas grapples with the ghost of his father and Maya yearns for the warmth of her family, their lives are thrown into disarray with the arrival of a small, abandoned child, Erica, a Returned with a peculiar brightness in her eyes. In 'What We Have Lost', the veil between life and death is thin, and love, family, and resilience are tested against the backdrop of a horror that defies the natural order. A haunting narrative that explores the gray area between the living and the Returned, this novel will leave you questioning the lengths we are willing to go for those we hold dear.
