She thought she could outrun her past. She was wrong.

Jansi has built her life on carefully measured steps--balancing the unspoken rules of her South Asian upbringing with the demands of her American world. But when a sudden unraveling threatens everything she has constructed, she is forced to stop, listen, and face what she has long avoided.

As fragments of her past resurface--a childhood marked by separation from her parents, the unease of belonging to two cultures, and the shadow of a betrayal she has never named--Jansi must decide whether to keep living within the boundaries she's known or step into the uncertain space where truth and transformation meet.

Moving seamlessly between past and present, The Invisible Canvas is a layered, lyrical exploration of resilience, identity, and the ways we learn to tell stories we have kept hidden. Steeped in cultural nuance yet profoundly universal, it is a novel that lingers--long after the final page is turned.
