The Ashes Know Her Name is a gripping saga of survival, love, and the enduring scars of terror.

Ana Summer was just ten years old when her world shattered. Raised on a peaceful kibbutz in Israel, her idyllic childhood was torn apart by a brutal terrorist attack during her birthday celebration. Amid the chaos, Ana loses her beloved three-year-old cousin, Lilikoi, and her mother, Ellie, who vanishes without a trace. Her father, consumed by grief and vengeance, leaves Ana behind to search for Ellie, abandoning her to the care of the Akamai family in the remote mountains of West Maui. Two decades will pass before father and daughter cross paths again, but the wounds of his absence run deep.

In Hawaii, Ana finds safety but not peace. Haunted by her past and embittered by her father's rejection, she builds walls around her heart-even against Kimo, the Akamai family's eldest son, whose quiet strength and unwavering devotion could be her salvation. But Ana convinces herself she's too broken to deserve love.

When the inferno of the 2023 Lahaina wildfires engulfs their world, Ana and Kimo barely escape the flames, only to be thrust into an even darker nightmare. As the ashes of Maui smolder, news arrives of another terror strike-once again in southern Israel. Ana's estranged half-sister, Rachel, is abducted by Hamas during a violent massacre and sold into a human trafficking ring operating across the Pacific. Rachel and her friend Zara, a young Palestinian girl, are imprisoned on a yacht somewhere in the Hawaiian archipelago.

Rallying old allies-ex-Mossad operatives and ex-Marines forged in the crucible of conflict-Ana and Kimo embark on a high-stakes rescue mission. Their enemy: a sadistic billionaire who profits from human lives. In the heart of a violent storm, a daring assault on the villain's fortified mansion leads them deep into the treacherous lava tubes beneath the island. Gunfire and peril follow at every turn, culminating in a desperate flight through the pitch-black labyrinth.

As Kimo lies gravely wounded, Ana is forced to confront the truth she's long denied. In the shadow of death, love emerges from the darkness.
