Louise Till inherits her father's small-town hardware shop and, quietly, begins making copies of customers' keys—private tokens she carries as a way to manage grief and unanswered questions about her parents' marriage.

After her own marriage collapses, one copied key becomes the path into a neighbor's life and the catalyst for blackmail, break-ins and a tangled, unsolved mystery. The story unfolds over a long winter as Lou confronts the neighbors around her and the hidden truths within her family.

Spare and observant, Unlocking examines how ordinary habits can mask guilt and how secrets reshape community and self.

  • Themes: grief, secrecy, family, community
  • Tone: atmospheric, intimate, suspenseful
  • Setting: small town, winter
