Blue hour settles over a rain-slick quay. In a city that keeps its own ledgers, a single decision-gentle, inconvenient, impossible to unmake-sets lives on a collision course. Keys change hands.

Produktbeschreibung
Blue hour settles over a rain-slick quay. In a city that keeps its own ledgers, a single decision-gentle, inconvenient, impossible to unmake-sets lives on a collision course. Keys change hands. A battered notebook gathers names, owed favours, and the kind of promises that outlast a season. As storms roll in from the harbour, people who have learned to ration their hope try again anyway. A ferry whistle, a shop light, a door held open-small mercies become a map. Old hurts refuse spectacle; new loyalties ask to be tested in daylight. And overhead, the crows count everything we keep and everything we abandon, stern in the morning, oddly merciful at dusk. Children of the Crows is a cinematic, slow-burn literary romance with thriller edges-consent-forward, kid-first, and tender without sentimentality. A novel about how cities take care of their own, and how ordinary bravery makes room for a different kind of ending.
Autorenporträt
About the Author Laura Carpenter writes cinematic, emotionally charged romance and thrillers with Irish heart, razor-edged stakes, and lived-in tenderness. Her stories blend love and danger, intimacy and aftermath-where every bruise has meaning and every act of mercy leaves a mark. Born and raised in Dublin and Belfast, Laura builds entire worlds rooted in realism, resilience, and the quiet power of connection. Her work explores the edges of devotion-how far we'll go to protect the people and places we love, and what forgiveness really costs when the storm clears. When she isn't finishing another book, she's already plotting the next one-usually over strong tea, soft music, and too many notes in the margins.
