Overview

Some names are written down. Others are quietly erased.

In Swansea, Carys Matthias is trying to understand what happened to someone, and why the answers never quite seem to match the records. Her questions lead her towards EverEase, a direct cremation service built around reassurance, dignity and trust. But behind the comforting language sits a system that has learned how easily people can disappear inside paperwork, procedure and silence.

Laurence Morrow has spent years carrying the weight of an old failure. When he teams up with Carys, they begin to uncover patterns that should not exist, drawing them into a case where every answer seems to raise another question - and where the truth has consequences for far more than one family.

As records conflict and names surface, Carys and Morrow are forced to confront a disturbing question:

What happens when the systems designed to care for us decide which parts of us are worth keeping?

Set against the streets and coastline of Swansea, The Names That We Keep is a tense, character-driven mystery about grief, memory, institutional power and the things we leave behind.
