The Last Train to Partick
After her father dies, Mara Bell returns to Glasgow to clear out the flat above a shuttered newsagent and discovers he has been quietly paying rent on a room she has never seen. What begins as a practical task turns into an uneasy reckoning with the version of him she knew, and the one he kept separate from family life. The novel follows Mara as she tries to decide whether some absences are best left intact, or whether truth is a form of inheritance too.
