Forensic anthropologist Tori Benino has landed her dream job: excavating an ancient Roman village buried by Vesuvius. When she uncovers the remains of a murder victim in a Roman latrine, Tori is on the brink of a career-defining discovery. But as the mystery deepens, her own life unravels. After a violent encounter with a powerful man, Tori’s career crumbles, and she ends up in war-torn Ukraine, where she finds herself drawn to Samir Al’Shani, a man with his own tragic past.
In Vespasian’s Rome, Thalia is forced into a loveless marriage to a wealthy senator.

As Tori fights to claim back her career and bring justice to the victims she uncovers, she is faced with her own personal tragedy and a life altering choice. Can she walk away from the past and build a new future? Or will the pull of ancient secrets and a chance at redemption in Rome be too strong to resist?

Book Reviews
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This story is characterised by remarkable clarity and vividness, each word carefully chosen to paint striking images in the reader’s mind. The seamless flow of the narrative not only captivates the imagination but also engages the emotions, pulling readers deeper into the story. As a result, it becomes exceedingly difficult to tear oneself away from the pages, ensuring that the book remains a constant companion until the very last word is read.
“What Remains” by Erryn Lee is a captivating novel that offers an emotional journey for its readers. While the narrative is beautifully crafted, some moments can be quite distressing. In particular, the scenes set in Ukraine resonate deeply, especially considering the ongoing conflict in the region as I pen this review. The vivid descriptions and poignant storytelling bring to life the harsh realities faced by those living through such tumultuous times, making it a powerful and thought-provoking read. -- Mary Anne Yarde, Yarde Book Reviews & Promotions
