Description

A devastating and idiosyncratic novel about grief, identity, and reality. Dead in Long Beach is a story told from the future, as Coral responds to texts from her dead brother's phone, blurring the lines between truth and fiction. As Coral, a successful author, navigates her own reality, she becomes increasingly entangled with the quirky world of her hit dystopian novel, Wildfire. Her actions risk not only her sanity but also her relationship with her niece, Khadija, as long-buried memories and traumas surface in the present. With its unique blend of literary fiction and psychological suspense, Dead in Long Beach is a gripping exploration of grief, identity, and the complexities of human connection.
