When her sister disappears without a trace, Maeve Wilder returns to the coastal town they once called home — a place thick with fog, silence, and stories no one wants to tell.
As Maeve begins to peel back the layers of her sister’s final days, she uncovers a hidden world of fractured memories, uncanny coincidences, and a small community bound by secrets and sorrow. The deeper she digs, the more the lines blur between the natural and the uncanny — between what is real and what we choose to believe to survive.
A Murmuration of Starlings is a haunting meditation on grief, memory, and the fragile beauty of connection. With prose as shifting and fluid as the birds in its title, Eliot delivers a spellbinding tale where every flutter hints at something larger — and every silence carries the weight of something left unsaid.
