When Clara inherits her grandmother’s quaint bookshop in a small town, she discovers more than dusty shelves and forgotten novels. Hidden among the books is an old diary that reveals a decades-old romantic mystery. As Clara delves into the secrets of her grandmother’s past, she unravels a story of love, loss, and hidden treasures that ties the town’s history to her own future. With the help of friends and a growing connection to the town, Clara must decide whether to save the bookshop and solve the mystery or return to her life in the city.

Four women--Tess, who faces a crumbling marriage; her sister Suki, who is the victim of a dirt-digging biographer; Mara, who is seeking sanctuary; and Danae, a postmistress who guards the town's secrets--must confront their pasts before they can look to the future.
