One house. Five women. And a fire that will burn away everything but the truth.
Set in 1963 Mississippi, Salted with Fire is a searing Southern Gothic novel of memory, womanhood, and generational reckoning. As three grown daughters return home to their blind matriarch, buried secrets rise with the heat—and one girl stands at the edge of becoming. Raw, lyrical, and unforgettable, this is a story where silence is a curse, and the fire is not just cleansing—it’s justice.
“Some books speak. This one howls. A haunting, beautifully written Southern tragedy that scorches the page and lingers like smoke."
