Marin Halsey arrived at Harrington's Oasis at eighteen, drawn by something she couldn't name. She never left.
For forty years, Marin Halsey has tended the sinkhole at the heart of Harrington's Oasis - a spring-fed, luminous pool in a stretch of central Florida scrubland that is, among other things, a threshold. She knows its limestone edges by feel, its seasonal moods, its small communications. She has given this work to others when the time came, named them in the quiet way of someone who carries a lineage, and walked away. The way it's done.She has never been given it back.
Now, in the first full year after the death of the community's founder, something is shifting. Owen Turner - the property's newest keeper - is asking the right questions without knowing they're the right ones. A memory of the predecessor who first passed the sinkhole to Marin keeps surfacing, unfinished. And someone new has arrived at the Oasis, drawn toward the water in a way Marin has seen before.
Forty years of holding. One season of beginning to let it continue.
The Sinkhole at Harrington's Oasis is a warm, contemplative novel about inheritance and loneliness, about what we carry for decades without naming it, and the quiet grace of finally being known by someone who stays long enough to look.
Book Two of the Harrington's Oasis series.
