The Last Draft
Mara Ellis is a copyeditor in Plymouth who has built her life around other people’s words, not her own. When she agrees to help her ex-boyfriend finish the audiobook script for his late father’s memoir, old grief and unfinished feelings surface alongside a family story that is more complicated than either of them expected.
