Emily St. John Mandel
Gavin Sasaki is a promising young journalist in New York City, until heâ€™s disgraced following a series of unforgivable lapses in his work. Itâ€™s early 2009, and the world has gone dark very quickly. The economic collapse has turned an era that magazine headlines once heralded as the second gilded age into something that more closely resembles the Great Depression. The last thing Gavin wants to do is return to his hometown of Sebastian, Florida, but heâ€™s in no position to refuse when heâ€™s offered a job by his sister, Eilo.,Besides, Eilo has shown him a photo of a ten-year-old girl who could be homeless and in trouble. The little girl looks strikingly like Gavin and has the same last name as his high school girlfriend, Anna, from a decade ago. Gavin, obsessed with film noir and private detectives and otherwise at loose ends, begins his own private investigation in an effort to track down Anna and their apparent daughterâ€”an investigation that soon takes a surprisingly dangerous turn.
