For fans of poignant family dramas, this deeply moving debut follows a young Vietnamese-Australian woman, Ky Tran, who returns to her family after her brother Denny's shocking murder. Haunted by her last words—"Just let him go"—Ky grapples with guilt after Denny, a bright and optimistic young man, is killed in a busy restaurant in Cabramatta, a suburb grappling with violence and a heroin epidemic. As she attends Denny's funeral, Ky learns that the police are baffled by the case; despite numerous witnesses, no one claims to have seen anything. Driven by a desperate need to understand what happened, Ky sets aside her grief to investigate the witnesses herself. Each encounter reveals deeper layers of trauma and violence rooted in their community's history, shaped by colonialism, the Vietnam War, and survival choices. Alternating between Ky's voice and those of the witnesses, this extraordinary narrative delves into the complexities of friendship, family, and community, featuring an unforgettable cast connected by tragedy. Combining family drama with gripping suspense, this profound story is a compelling read for those who appreciate intricate, character-driven tales.
