The Boy Who Never Spoke

By Dinesh Deckker

He lost his voice to the sea.
She lost her music to grief.
Together, they found a way to speak.

Ten-year-old Arun hasn't spoken a word since a tsunami stole his parents and silenced his world. Now living in a quiet coastal town in Sri Lanka, he hides behind sketchbooks and rhythms only he can hear.

Maya, a once-celebrated violinist, has locked her own music away after the loss of her unborn child. Teaching at a struggling local school, she's not looking for redemption-until she meets the boy in the back row who listens like no one else.

The Boy Who Never Spoke is a deeply emotional novel about silence, resilience, and the healing power of music. Through ocean tides, broken instruments, and quiet acts of trust, Arun and Maya begin to piece together what grief tried to shatter.

Perfect for fans of literary fiction and quiet, character-driven stories, this novel will stay with you long after the final note fades.
