The Ill-Fated Sisters of Mableton

The Ill-Fated Sisters of Mableton

A sharp-tongued reunion. A past too painful to forget. A love that lingers through time.

A heartwarming and sharp-witted novel about estranged sisters, long-buried secrets, and the bonds that refuse to break—no matter how much time has passed.

After nearly seventy years of silence, Myrtle Pontier appears—uninvited and unexplained—on the doorstep of her older sister, Agnes Haskell.

•No word. No warning. No apology.
•Just a battered suitcase and the weight of a shared past left unspoken.

But Agnes isn't welcoming her with open arms. Not after the night Myrtle vanished. Not after the heartbreak she left behind.

As the sisters awkwardly reconnect, what begins as a barbed exchange of grievances quickly spirals into a reckoning. Secrets resurface. Old wounds reopen. And the lives they've carefully built crack beneath the pressure of unfinished business.

In this poignant and emotionally layered story, expect:

•🖤 Searing sibling tension and razor-sharp dialogue
•
•💬 Laugh-out-loud banter paired with deeply human moments
•
•💔 Long-buried resentments and unexpected revelations
•
•🥀 Disastrous dating escapades in the golden years
