A historical novel about inheritance, silence, and the secrets families protect at all costs
The Peacock’s Legacy is a historical novel about what families leave behind when they refuse to speak the truth. Set in a world where reputation matters and silence is survival, the story explores how loyalty, secrecy, and inherited expectations shape lives across generations. It is a quiet, emotionally layered novel for readers who enjoy family dramas, moral tension, and the slow unveiling of hidden histories — where what is unsaid carries as much weight as what is revealed.
A story of family, reputation, and the quiet damage caused by what is never spoken aloud.
