Jamileh A E: When The Silence Echoes, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A single birthday card is all it takes to drag her back into a childhood she fought to survive.

Living quietly in suburban Sydney with her husband and young son, a pregnant mother believes she has finally built a life untouched by the emotional manipulation and control that once defined her world. Years of distance from her estranged older brother have given her something close to peace.

But when his message arrives, old wounds do not simply reopen, they bleed.

As memories of his cruelty resurface, she finds herself questioning everything she thought she had healed. Through tender moments with her son and brutally honest journal entries, she begins to confront the silence that protected her as a child but now threatens the family she is building.

With another baby on the way, the stakes have never been higher. If she does not face the past, she risks passing its shadow forward.

Caught between fear and resolve, she must decide whether to remain silent, or finally reclaim her voice.

When The Silence Echoes is a powerful and emotionally charged novel about sibling abuse, family trauma, motherhood, and the courage it takes to break generational cycles before they repeat.
