Behind the Postcards In the postcard-perfect paradise of Mauritius, Rajiv is a ghost in the system-a brilliant coder drowning in rejection and the quiet despair of his mother's fading health. Amira is a documentary filmmaker armed with a camera, determined to expose the island's hidden truths. When a chance meeting at a dusty bus stop sparks an unlikely partnership, they begin to build a digital archive, "The Unseen Island," weaving together the stories of a struggling fisherman, a defiant factory worker, and the rhythmic pulse of Sega music. But as their project gains traction, they are torn between the sanitized funding of the tourism board and the uncompromising integrity of their mission. A searing cyclone, a family crisis, and a love that complicates everything force Rajiv to choose between exile in a sterile tech job and the messy, beautiful work of reclaiming his home, one story at a time. This is a novel about the light we find when we dare to look behind the postcards.
Brinda is a writer with a deep fascination for the mysteries of the natural world, the unexplored realms of science, and the untold stories hidden beneath the surface. With a background in engineering and pedagogy, she spent years studying the intersection of science and the human spirit. This passion is reflected in her work, which often explores themes of discovery, the unknown, and humanity's relationship with the natural world. When not writing, Brinda can often be found sitting by the sea contemplating the beauty of Mauritian relief, always searching for new inspiration to fuel the next adventure. The Silent Guardians is her third novel, blending the scientific with the soulful, and taking readers on an unforgettable journey into the depths of both the ocean and the human heart.
