The Last Catalogue
When a small-town bookshop in Kilkenny receives a crate of unsorted estate books, the proprietor finds a handwritten catalogue tucked inside a battered paperback and a note that points to a missing local woman. As the shop’s regulars start recognising names, places and old grievances in the margins, a quiet inventory becomes a search through the town’s private history. The case turns on what people thought was worth keeping, and what they were willing to misplace.
