The Town of Perpetual Autumn is your next cozy autumn read.
Dr. Salomé Poe built her life around success. A prestigious dental surgery career in New York, a pristine apartment—every box was ticked. But when she gets the call that her childhood best friend, Claire, has drowned in a remote Oregon town, her carefully constructed world cracks open.
Arriving in the unnervingly charming St. Stephenshire, a town of perpetual autumn, Sal discovers she's been left everything: Claire's ivy-covered cottage, her secrets, and a final, mysterious request. As Sal unearths the life Claire lived without her, she's pulled into a world of hidden pain, unexpected friendships, and a truth that will force her to re-examine her own past. To honor the friend she lost, she may have to let go of the woman she worked so hard to become.
For readers who loved the atmospheric mystery of Adrienne Young's The Unmaking of June Farrow and the powerful female friendship at the heart of In Five Years by Rebecca Serle. The Town of Perpetual Autumn explores what it means to live a purposeful life through the eyes of Sal, the typical fast-paced Millennial always looking for the next big thing to achieve.
