Testimonies
In a remote Welsh valley, three men give their testimonies to an unseen inquisitor: a scholar, a schoolmaster, and a man whose name is never spoken. Their accounts converge on a single woman, Bronwen, and the truth of what became of her. As the narratives interweave, the reader is forced to piece together a love triangle, a murder, and the cost of a life lived in the shadow of someone else's violence.
