What Remains of The Lantern

In the fog-veiled town of Wister Hollow, memory is not linear-and forgetting is a ritual. When Iris Bellamy inherits her grandmother's crumbling home, she finds more than family heirlooms in the attic. There's a boy in the woods who should not exist, a spiral in the earth that shifts when walked, and a lantern that remembers names long erased from history. As she descends into a recursion of failed rituals and ghosted selves, Iris begins to question who she is-or who she was supposed to be.
To stop the loop, she must unravel her family's final vow. But in a town that remembers selectively, carrying someone else's memory might cost her her own. What Remains of the Lantern is a haunting literary fantasy about memory, identity, and the terrifying beauty of being known.
