You will talk about 2016. You will talk about The Lighted City. You
will be brave and truthful. You will get to the bottom of what
happened.Paul (Paulina) Hayes loves her cousin Adrian. Inseparable
from a young age, they play The Lighted City, an imaginary world
where they pretend to live together and can escape a childhood that
seems both too sad and too grown-up. But The Lighted City isn't
without danger. Years later, Paul is struggling with PTSD after a
season of turmoil— one in which Adrian is dead, and radio and
television are filled with reports of missing children. Just as
stability is settling into her life and relationships, Paul is
dragged back into the fate that Adrian seems to have scripted for
them. And so she finds herself journeying across the country, down
into a ravine, and back to The Lighted City, where so much of her
childhood played out. Only by doing so can she begin to come to
terms with 'the day everything happened' and what has unfolded
since then. With a unique blend of contemporary storytelling and
psychological fiction, Play is a haunting, riveting novel that
reminds us of both the beauty and danger of imagination.
