The Keeper of Unwritten Numbers, (Paperback)

In the Welsh village of Cwm T&amp;#375;, every door carries a number carved into the wood - the year its resident will die. No one knows who carves them, or how. No one has ever seen one change. <p>Maggie Rhys Rhys has spent her whole life terrified of hers. She has none. Just four zeros above her door, and forty-two years of silence where a number should be. </p><p>When her estranged father dies and leaves her his postmistress position - and a locked box of unanswered questions - Maggie returns to the village she fled, only to find a stranger has moved into the abandoned house next door, a forge that's been cold for twenty-seven years is warm again, and her own blank door has started, impossibly, to pulse. </p><p>As the village's seven residents confront what their numbers have made of their lives - a farmer learning to dance instead of merely wait, a mother teaching her daughter to see what adults refuse to, a young man discovering his death has moved further away and doesn't know what to do with the years he's been given back - Maggie must decide what a life looks like when no one has told you how long you have to live it. </p><p>The Keeper of Unwritten Numbers is a novel about the difference between counting your days and living them - and about what we owe each other in the space between prediction and choice.</p>
