Fields of Silence is a sweeping historical novel set in the heart of the American Civil War, where love, loyalty, and resistance intersect.

Eliza Monroe, the daughter of a Southern plantation owner, is raised in silence—taught not to question, not to see. But when she discovers Nathan, an enslaved man secretly teaching himself to read, their quiet bond becomes the spark that challenges everything she has ever believed.

As war engulfs Georgia and the Monroe estate burns, Eliza and Nathan must navigate shifting allegiances, hidden escapes, and impossible choices. Together, they confront the cost of freedom, the weight of legacy, and the power of names reclaimed.

Perfect for readers who love emotionally grounded historical fiction, Fields of Silence is a story about what it means to bear witness, to choose truth over comfort—and to plant something lasting in the ashes of what once was.

For fans of The Underground Railroad, Cold Mountain, and The Nightingale.
