Book Overview
They are both on a collision course with destiny.
Amelia, a devout single woman in her mid-forties, lives with her family in the town of Remedios, in the heart of Cuba. For more than twenty years, she has devoted her life to caring for others, quietly setting aside her own desires.
In 2022, Frank leaves his home in Miami to uncover the story of his late mother by traveling to the town where she was born. In Remedios, he forms an unexpected friendship with Amelia, who becomes his bridge to the past-unaware of how deeply he will alter her future. A creature of habit, Amelia resists his ideas at first. But change is already underway.
Yet Remedios holds more than memories. It is a town suspended between darkness and light-a stronghold of faith amid quiet despair, a place struggling to endure. In a land of ghosts and parrandas, where tradition runs deep, its people cling to hope even as their world unravels.
Orchids in the Shadows is a story of faith, resilience, and transformation-where even in the deepest darkness, light persists.
Orchids in the Shadows, darkness can only be fought with light.Customer Reviews
