The Quiet Harvest

When her father falls ill, Nadia leaves her corporate job in Kuala Lumpur and returns to the family durian orchard in Raub. The farm is deep in debt, her brother wants to sell to a developer, and the village remembers why she left ten years ago. Over one monsoon season, Nadia has to decide whether to save the land or let it go. Along the way she uncovers a family secret that changes how she sees her father. The Quiet Harvest is a warm, slow-burning novel about belonging, forgiveness and the roots we try to outgrow.
