TOWARDS FIRE

Between disappearances and dark rituals, a young woman with prodigious intelligence flees from her past only to face the most dangerous mystery: the secrets of her own family.

In a Puerto Rico marked by violence and the occult, Towards Fire follows the story of Sofía, a brilliant young woman who flees her chaotic home, marked by her mother's Diogenes syndrome and her grandmother's suicide. In her escape attempt, she must confront a network of disappearances, cults, and
family secrets that force her to question her identity and her destiny. As a storm lurks on the island, she will discover that the biggest enigma has always been within her own family.

With distressing prose and a staggering plot, Helena Sampedro builds a psychological thriller that exposes the shadows of Caribbean society and the dangers of normalizing violence.
