What the Soil Remembers

Two decades after a fatal demolition in a decaying industrial town, a billionaire developer returns to erect a luxury tower on the blood-soaked ground. But when a former archivist with a fractured memory begins to assemble the pieces of that night, she uncovers a conspiracy stitched into the very foundations of the town's respectable families. Told with the razor-sharp precision and dark domestic tension of Oyinkan Braithwaite's style, this is a story about the monstrous things ordinary people will bury to protect their fragile, orderly lives—and how easily the soil gives up its dead.
