Bird Box Widow

When quiet widow Celia Brandt finds a cryptic message carved into the base of a second-hand bird box-"Find the truth. She never left. Z.T. - 2012"-she doesn't expect it to reopen a decade-old mystery. But as she uncovers more handcrafted boxes, each hiding a fragment of truth, she's drawn into the forgotten story of Zoë Theron, a teenager who vanished without a trace.

What begins as curiosity soon becomes a calling.

Following hidden carvings, buried journals, and whispered warnings, Celia pieces together a trail that links her late husband, a missing girl, and a respected village reverend. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more danger circles her quiet life.

Set against the soulful stillness of South Africa's Garden Route, The Bird Box Widow is a gripping mystery threaded with emotional depth, crafted for readers who believe that even in silence, courage speaks.

Some stories are too important to stay buried. Some women refuse to stop listening.
