First draft
The Last Borrowed Book
Seventeen-year-old Niamh O’Connell spends most of her time shelving books in a small Cork library and quietly fixing the library’s neglected ebook catalogue. When an old, unsigned novel in the digital archive starts matching events in her own life, she becomes convinced someone has hidden a personal message inside the library’s records. As she follows the trail, she has to decide whether to protect the library’s reputation or expose the truth behind a story that seems to know her too well.
