Some silences are louder than words.

After seven years of marriage, Elias and Clara have reached the end. The divorce papers are ready. The arguments have faded into exhausted silence. The only thing they still agree on is their love for their one-year-old daughter, Belle.

But when a family emergency forces them back into the same house, the loss they have never spoken about can no longer be avoided.

Three years ago, they lost their first child, Sophie.

Neither of them has ever told the truth about what happened that day. Clara buried herself in work. Elias buried himself in silence. Each blamed the other for moving on too easily—or not moving on at all.

Now, for the first time in years, they are forced to confront the grief that broke them. The question is no longer whether their marriage can survive.

It's whether they can finally tell each other the truth.

The Things We Never Said is a collaborative novella about grief, silence, and the slow work of finding your way back to the person you thought you'd lost. Perfect for readers of quiet, character-driven literary fiction.
