In Pompeii, the earth has begun to move. Still, the city carries on.

A public official guards the story on which his standing depends. An enslaved scribe clings to the promise of a different life. A young woman takes possession of a record whose true value she does not yet understand. Between them passes a secret written in wax - vulnerable to a flame, yet capable of surviving an empire.

Over the final days before Vesuvius erupts, their choices draw them toward one another as the familiar world darkens beneath falling ash. Centuries later, what remains may tell a story of its own.

The Record of Ash is an intimate historical novel about three lives, one buried truth, and the uncertain line between evidence and memory.

Ash can preserve a record. It cannot preserve its meaning.
