What if the secret in the attic was never meant to stay hidden?
When Mara Caldwell opens a weathered trunk in the house she has inherited, she finds journals, beadwork, and a map tied to a young Kiowa boy living through the violence of the late 1800s. Every page pulls her deeper into a past her family tried to erase, and every clue points to a lie buried in the land beneath her feet.
- A dual-timeline mystery that links one woman's search for answers to a boy's fight to preserve memory.
- A haunting Native American historical novel rich with family secrets, archival clues, and emotional stakes.
- For readers who love buried artifacts, forgotten names, old houses, and the truth hiding in plain sight.
As Mara follows the journals, she uncovers records, graves, and a cover-up that reaches across generations. But someone else wants the trunk, the artifacts, and the silence to continue.
Compelling, atmospheric, and impossible to put down, this is a story about inheritance, identity, and what it takes to return a stolen truth to its rightful home.
Read The Indian in the Attic today and discover what the house has been keeping.
