First draft
The Last Train Home
Sixteen-year-old Mira Holt spends her evenings riding the last train through Nottingham because home feels smaller and harder to breathe in than the carriage windows. When she finds a lost notebook full of blunt, unsent confessions, she starts tracing its owner and ends up dragged into other people's private mess in the middle of her own.
