The Forgetting Tide - A cozy fantasy mystery about a runaway archivist, a wildly opinionated houseplant, and the island that starts forgetting itself the moment she arrives

A cozy fantasy mystery about a runaway archivist, a wildly opinionated houseplant, and the island that starts forgetting itself the moment she arrives. Wren Ashby doesn't want an adventure. She wants to disappear - quietly, completely, somewhere nobody will ever ask her to explain the trunk she won't open or the life she fled in the middle of the night. A half-drowned lighthouse on a forgotten island seems perfect: small, sleepy, far enough from everything to finally let her breathe.
She has exactly one rule for her new life. Stay invisible. Stay quiet. Never, ever explain herself to anyone - especially not the maddeningly steady ferryman who keeps showing up with kindling she didn't ask for and questions she has no intention of answering. The island has other plans. Within days of her arrival, the islanders start losing pieces of themselves. A name. A promise. The reason they were furious at each other an hour ago.
It's funny, at first - the kind of thing neighbors laugh about over the morning catch. Then it isn't. Then it's reaching for the things people can't afford to lose, and Wren - who swore she was done being the person responsible for things going wrong - finds she is, once again, exactly that person, whether she wanted the job or not. She has five days before an official from the mainland arrives to determine exactly who, or what, is to blame, and an entire island's worth of memory hangs on whether she can solve it first.
Somewhere in her own locked trunk sits the one truth she crossed an ocean to avoid ever saying out loud again. The island is running out of time. So is she. And the closer she gets to the answer, the more it looks like the only way to save everyone she's come to love is to finally open the one thing she swore she never would. What is she so afraid of finding inside?
