"Grief isn’t a low. It’s a terrifying high, atop a mountain I never climbed."

Visiting her father's grave on Halloween was never the plan, but inexplicably, Elle finds herself drawn to the local cemetery.

Hoping to find a semblance of closure, she arrives at his graveside with a notebook clutched to her chest.

Drowning in a downpour of memories, she closes her eyes and focuses on breathing.
