Shadows at Oak Bank

By S.J. Gibbs

On a hazy summer morning, Marianna slips into the cool waters of the pond at Oak Bank, the sprawling Cornish estate that has always felt more like a witness than a home. As ripples spread across the surface, so too do the memories-of Sebastian, of first love of the day he left for Paris and never looked back.
Over the course of a single day, Marianna moves through the rooms of Oak Bank and the echoes of her past. Guests gather, old conversations resurface, and her younger brother Thomas-sharp-eyed and quietly observant-grows concerned by the weight she carries in silence.
When Sebastian returns unexpectedly that afternoon, the lines between memory and possibility blur. As the house listens in, Marianna must confront not only what once was, but what still might be.
A story of love lost and returned, of family ties stretched and tested, Shadows at Oak Bank is a haunting, intimate portrait of a woman at a crossroads-and the home that holds her secrets.
