  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Silas Deemer kept his store so faithfully that the people of Hillbrook set their lives by him — and not even death seemed reason enough to close up shop. Weeks after they laid him in the ground, a respectable banker walks home past the darkened storefront and finds the old man behind his counter, ledger open, ready to sell a jug of sirup as if nothing had happened. But the jug will not stay bought, and when the whole town crowds in to see for themselves, they learn that some habits outlast the grave — and some witnesses should never have looked.

  The Island

  It begins as an ordinary day of frayed nerves and suburban fractiousness. Following a sharp argument with his wife, Graham sets out across London with his young daughter, Jasmine. It is a journey born of a need for space – on the surface, a simple drive to clear the air.
  But as they move through the city, the familiar begins to feel inexplicably foreign.
  The motorways are tightening. The air is changing. On every screen, in every shop window, a recurring image of a remote island haunts the broadcast – an image that pulls Graham back toward a childhood he has tried to outrun.
  As the horizon darkens and the path home becomes increasingly uncertain, Graham is forced to navigate the shifting boundary between a father's protective instinct and a world that is rapidly losing its grip on the known.
  The Island is a devastatingly controlled novella from one of the UK's finest poets. It is a story of what remains when the structures of the everyday fall away: the memories we cannot escape, and the desperate, quiet love between a father and his child.
