The Borrowed Plot : What the Ground Keeps

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Some plots are borrowed. Some histories refuse to stay buried.At forty-three, Nora Gallagher arrives in a small Hudson Valley town with two suitcases, a temporary cottage, and no clear plan for what comes next. She expects quiet. Instead, she is assigned a neglected plot in the community garden-and steps into a story that began long before she arrived.A faded red-handled trowel stands in the soil as if someone meant to return. A rusted tin box holds traces of another gardener's life. In the library archives, ordinary records reveal how much the town has forgotten-or chosen not to remember. And as development threatens the ground generations have tended, longtime residents and newcomers clash over who belongs and who gets to decide the town's future.Following a trail through garden rows, council meetings, old photographs, and kitchen-table conversations, Nora begins to understand that the mystery is not only what the ground keeps. It is whether a person can start over without erasing what came before.The Borrowed Plot is a warm, atmospheric, character-driven novel about midlife reinvention, women's friendship, community secrets, and the patient work of belonging. A quietly compelling read for anyone who loves literary women's fiction, small-town settings, and mysteries rooted in memory rather than violence. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9798172476365
