Some secrets refuse to stay buried.
Life in the peaceful countryside of Bohol should have returned to normal, but unanswered questions continue to cast long shadows over Peter and Alma's family.
As forgotten events begin to resurface, each new discovery reveals that the past is far more complicated, and far more dangerous, than anyone imagined.
Set against the vibrant backdrop of the Philippines, The Shade of the Mango Tree is a compelling blend of mystery, family drama, and quiet suspense.
Hidden truths, old loyalties and unexpected revelations draw the characters ever deeper into a story where every answer uncovers another secret.
Rich in atmosphere and authentic local colour, Anthony Stovold's second Mango Tree novel explores family, memory, loss and the enduring consequences of decisions made long ago.
Because some truths never disappear.
They simply wait in the shade.
