The Line That Holds (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798285424291)

In a crumbling Eastern European capital, Elena and Malcolm arrive under fog and silence. He's an American economic advisor, she an artist caught between memory and stillness. As the city roils beneath its bureaucratic surface, a resistance simmers - and so does something inside her.

Drawn into a world of whispers, sketchbooks, and smoke-lit alleys, Elena finds herself entangled with Petar, a rebel with eyes like the future. Meanwhile, Malcolm navigates shadow diplomacy, slow truths, and a growing realization that the woman he loves is slipping into something deeper than revolution - she is becoming someone he may not know how to hold.

When lines are drawn - between loyalty and desire, between silence and survival - every choice reverberates. And when the world fractures, it is not the fire of rebellion that saves her.

It is the quiet kind of love that doesn't break.

It holds.
