Where Silence Waits
After thirty years away, John Sharkey returns to the small Irish town he once called home—a place he left behind with a trail of silence and regret. But the past is not buried, only waiting. As old faces resurface and long-forgotten memories stir, Tom finds himself haunted not by ghosts, but by the man he used to be and the choices that drove him away. In a town where time has slowed but wounds remain open, Tom must confront what he ran from and reckon with whether forgiveness—even his own—is still possible.
