Tracks Beneath the Clay
A story unearthed a legacy rewritten

When a daughter uncovers her family's hidden past, she discovers a secret that could rewrite everything she thought she knew about herself.

Janice only meant to fix up the old Georgia house. Instead, she finds a grave without a name, a letter never sent, and a hidden cellar that holds more than family silver.

A century earlier, seventeen-year-old Natalie arrives at her aunt's plantation—a Northern girl sent south as punishment. Beneath the whitewashed columns and sweet tea, she encounters a cousin whose charm masks something far more violent and an enslaved woman whose quiet courage kept the lights burning for those running north. When lives are threatened, Natalie makes a choice that will echo through generations.

As Janice pieces together old journal entries, faded letters, and whispered family stories, the truth emerges. The land remembers what was buried here. And it won’t stay silent.

Tracks Beneath the Clay is a haunting dual-timeline novel about inheritance, identity, and the women history tried to silence. For readers who loved The House of the Spirits and The Nightingale, this is a story of history carved into Georgia clay and the descendants who refuse to let the truth fade.
