Shape of Coming Home

When Cass's high-stakes PR pitch crumbles in a Melbourne boardroom, she's left staring down the gleaming emptiness of her high-rise life. A faded photo, a half-hearted Zoom call, and a snap decision later, she's giving away half her possessions and flying back to the sleepy English town she once fled without a word.
But coming home isn't simple.
In a place thick with memory, Cass is confronted by the people she ghosted-Sherie, who freezes at the sight of her; Maddie, who demands answers; and Rory, the man she once loved, now older, kinder, and carrying birdseed. The town is struggling, the community centre on the brink of closure, and Cass finds herself unexpectedly swept into the local effort to save it. Along the way, she teaches a workshop, mentors a bright teenager, and slowly begins to stitch together the fractured threads of her past.
Then Melbourne calls again, offering everything she once thought she wanted.
Heartfelt, quietly powerful, and steeped in the messy magic of second chances, The Shape of Coming Home is a story about leaving, returning, and rediscovering the version of yourself you forgot to miss.
