Strings Between Us
By Brinda L. Phokeerdass
What if the power to undo grief came at the cost of everything else?
When seventeen-year-old Lily discovers a hidden room in her crumbling ancestral home, she stumbles upon a strange and ancient loom-one that doesn't weave fabric, but fate itself. Threads pulse with memory, time, and pain. And when she reaches into the weave to undo her father's sorrow, she sets off a quiet unraveling that echoes far beyond her family.
Lives begin to fracture. Realities twist. And from the shadows of her good intentions, a presence awakens: The Puppeteer-a distorted reflection of grief wearing her father's face, pulling at the strings she thought she'd severed.
As Lily's control over the Loom slips, she must confront the price of reshaping fate. Because some threads were never meant to be rewoven.
A haunting, lyrical descent into memory, loss, and the terrifying cost of love,
The Quiet Knot
is a gothic horror-fantasy where every stitch tells a story-and some stories don't want to be forgotten.
