First draft
The Last Bookshop on North Hill
When a practical, quietly stubborn bookseller in Plymouth is told her small shop is due to close, she agrees to host a series of community events to prove it still matters. The only person willing to help is the new neighbour upstairs, a software developer with a talent for fixing systems but not always people.
