Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the rain-darkened streets of an old industrial city, Phúc makes his living restoring forgotten things. At the Everhart Atelier, he repairs cracked porcelain, worn leather, battered furniture, and timeworn objects others dismiss as worthless. But Phúc sees more than damage. Through an uncanny sensitivity to the marks left by human hands, he seems to hear the fear, longing, shame, and love embedded in every scar. To him, an object's wear is a record of the life that shaped it.When a discarded oak armchair arrives from a condemned tenement, its hidden tally marks reveal a father's years of waiting for the son he drove away. The discovery reunites two lives divided by silence-and convinces Phúc that even the most ordinary possession can preserve a truth no witness thought to tell. Other restorations deepen his understanding of the pain people conceal: a battered satchel bears the burden of a secret carried for years, while a delicate porcelain cup holds the ache of a relationship fractured by words left unsaid.Yet Phúc's apparent gift comes at a cost. His mentor, the exacting restorer Tristan Everhart, warns him that wood and porcelain do not speak, and that compassion can become self-deception when grief is mistaken for evidence. Meanwhile, archivist Maeve Hawthorne is hiding a blue envelope connected to the powerful Whitmore family and the ruin of her father, Julian. When a carved cedar chest arrives carrying the possibility of clearing Julian's name, Maeve turns to Phúc-the one person she believes can uncover what history has buried.For the first time, however, the object gives him nothing. As his strange inner world falls silent, Phúc must face the childhood trauma he has spent decades avoiding: the fire that took his family, the toy box his father made for him, and the grief that taught him to search the dead for voices the living could not provide. The chest's secret will not be revealed by magic, but by patient hands, careful observation, and the courage to confront the past without turning away.Secrets Inside Forgotten Things is a richly atmospheric novel about restoration, family estrangement, hidden evidence, and the fragile line between intuition and illusion. As Phúc and Maeve pursue the truth concealed beneath wood, iron, paper, and memory, they discover that the past may leave its marks on the things we abandon-but healing begins when the living choose to listen, speak, and begin again. It asks what we owe the past-and what we must reclaim for ourselves.…
