The Last Bus to Quatre Bornes

On the last bus to Quatre Bornes, under a sky heavy with forgotten stars, a handful of passengers board, each isolated with their own private grief. There is Leila, a teenager nursing a broken heart, who finds herself sitting beside an elderly seamstress clutching a key tied with red thread. A man returning his father's ashes to the sea feels a strange pull towards the weary Conductor, who has driven this route for fifty years. And a tourist from London searches for a woman who vanished from his childhood decades ago.

As the bus travels through the night, the lines between past and present begin to blur. The same sega song plays through a modern phone and a vintage radio in perfect, impossible unison. Streetscapes flicker between eras, and the scent of smoke from a long-ago fire fills the aisle. The passengers discover their lives are inextricably linked to a single, cataclysmic night in 1960a night of storm and fire whose secrets the island has kept until now. This is a lyrical journey of magical realism, where a bus doesn't just travel through space, but through the layered memories of the island itself, offering a last chance for love, forgiveness, and remembrance.

Autorenporträt
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.
