Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a novel set in a small town or rural area, preferably somewhere like the American interior or New England, but I’m also very open to other places (a village in England, a remote town in another country, etc.). I want that mood of:
– a lonely diner or bar on a rainy night
– pine trees / forests / mountains in the background
– a quiet town where everyone knows each other
– a slightly eerie, melancholic atmosphere, with the sense that the town is hiding secrets
Genre-wise, I’m thinking mystery, literary fiction, crime, or even light horror—something more atmospheric and character-driven than action-heavy. A slow burn with strong sense of place.
Thank you very much!
