Some Boats Don't Return

By William Henry Forester and Catherine L Davis

Some stories don't begin with words. They begin with a silence. A long one. The kind a town keeps tucked under its floorboards, or stitched quietly into the lining of polite conversation. Some Boats Don't Return is a story born in that silence. It's the story of Claire Ellison, who comes home not to be welcomed, but to reckon. With a father whose presence shaped everything in his absence. With a mother whose disappearance was wrapped in myth and sealed with indifference. And with a town that watched it happen, and helped the forgetting. This is a book about the stories we bury and the ones we inherit. About grief that outlives explanation. About the difference between surviving something and being free of it. It is about what happens when the tide finally turns-and the shore must face what it left buried. Some boats do not return. Some were never meant to.
