A dead woman. A buried family. A name the island was told to forget.
But some truths don't stay silent-and some names remember you back.
When renowned folklorist Rhea Kaoro is found dead beneath the cliffs of the storm-wracked island of Varuka, her estranged daughter, Miri, returns home-reluctantly. The official story calls it an accident. Miri isn't convinced.
As monsoon rains close in and suspicion thickens, Miri teams up with the island's police chief, Naila Deshmukh. What they discover is far more dangerous than expected: a family wiped from the island's history. Legends that refuse to stay buried. A name spoken only in whispers.
The Eighth Name is a slow-burning, atmospheric mystery that explores generational silence, identity, and the stories that shape us-even when they're erased.
Perfect for fans of Tana French, Attica Locke, and Where the Crawdads Sing, this novel blends literary depth with haunting suspense.
