Description
Octavian Munroe's life is haunted by the memory of his brother. Mina Rose has always felt like an outsider, wishing she could be anything but white. Once lovers, now estranged, they both left their hometown in search of new beginnings after grief and heartbreak. Their journey home is sparked by the death of Michael Brown and the Black Lives Matter movement. As they travel, they seek out the music that once brought them together and gave their lives meaning. The record shop where they fell in love as teenagers is closing, prompting a desire for closure. This powerful story explores how fear shapes even the most fleeting encounters between people. It's a raw and emotional tale of love and loss that reckons with the impact of trauma on relationships and communities.
