A Week in October

di Frances Holcombe (Autore)

Salt & Anchor Press, 2026

Edna Rowe lived in the same cottage on Bear Street for forty years, and died on a Wednesday evening without troubling anybody about it. Her daughter Carol drives down from Truro to clear the house, and tells herself a week will be enough. It isn't, quite. Not for the house, and not for anything else. There is a man who keeps finding reasons to be useful — mending a lock, driving her somewhere she didn't ask to go. There is a friend of twenty years who turns up unannounced with a bottle of wine and no intention of being sent home early. There is a notebook in a drawer that shouldn't mean anything, and does. And there is a version of her mother's life that Carol never once asked about, because you don't, until you have no choice. This isn't a mystery. Nobody is investigating anything. It's a book about clearing out a house and discovering, slowly and almost by accident, what you were actually looking for — and it doesn't arrive from where you expect it to. A standalone story set in Porthaven, for readers who'd rather sit with a book than race through it.
