The Salt and the Hollow
In Aberystwyth, a tired bookbinder starts finding impossible inscriptions hidden in the margins of second-hand novels, each one pointing to a buried conflict between the town and something old beneath the harbour. When the marks begin to spread into ordinary lives, she has to decide whether to expose the hidden history or leave it buried and keep the peace.
