Amelia arrives at Terrance's Bronx apartment in the middle of the night with nothing but a worn notebook and a silence that feels heavier than words. No one says exactly why she's there-but the bruises she carries aren't always on her skin.
Ten-year-old twins Senia and Jahms, Terrance's godchildren, are told to give her space. But space doesn't feel like enough. They want to understand her quiet, to find the pieces she's lost, and maybe-just maybe-help her feel safe again.
Through drawings slipped under doors, rooftop talks, and moments that speak louder than words, the three kids build a fragile bridge between them. But healing isn't easy. And sometimes, the truth is harder to share than the silence that hides it.
Tender, heartbreaking, and full of hope, The Things We Lost in Her Silence is a story about found family, the wounds we carry, and the love that waits patiently on the other side of fear.
For readers who believe that even in the quietest moments, we are never truly alone.
