2016br. Questo romanzo di Vanda Mauceri è una sorta di arazzo composito che, lungo il percorso di vita della protagonista e sullo sfondo del corpo diplomatico, esplora i sentimenti umani e le miserie di un mondo di privilegiati. L'amicizia, l'amore familiare e quello passionale, nelle sue molteplici forme, vengono incastonati in un coinvolgente edificio narrativo. La psiche, spesso culla di sofferenze celate e patite in silenzio e l'interiorità talvolta grigia, talvolta ricca di essenza, vengono sondate attraverso la somaticità dei sentimenti umani. I personaggi sono animati da una vitalità che porterà il lettore all'interno delle loro esistenze. La vicenda scorre fluida, evolvendo in un crescendo dai ritmi sempre più serrati, giungendo al parossismo e sfociando nel thriller con un finale del tutto sorprendente.

2017br. Un uomo fradicio e intirizzito si risveglia su una spiaggia sconosciuta. Non ricorda nulla, né di quel che è successo né di sé: ogni memoria è svanita. Aiutato da un'abitante del luogo, recupera qualche brandello della propria identità. Vive in un cottage sull'isola di Harris nelle Ebridi, e sta conducendo delle ricerche sul mistero di tre guardiani scomparsi nel 1900 dal faro locale. Ma i file che dovrebbero contenere i capitoli del libro sono vuoti. L'unico indizio è una mappa su cui è tracciato un sentiero, la Via delle Bare, che attraversa l'isola. L'uomo non sa dove conduca, ma sa che seguirlo potrebbe essere il solo modo di ritrovare sé stesso e la verità.
