If You Saw What I Seen follows Elias and a small town as a worn ledger becomes a quiet covenant-names spoken aloud, recipes and photographs folded into its pages-binding a community to remember, repair, and reckon with what was hidden. Sometimes it's hard to love, but through patient rituals-mending shirts, planting a sapling, setting stones-this novel shows how the steady work of memory can remake a place and the people in it.
