Homecoming

by Caren Gussoff

Katey Bruscke is a nomadic twenty-year-old who wants to be any place but where she came from. But she returns to her home town when notified that her long-lost older sister Reese has finally turned up. In the morgue.
Why Reese - who Katey has romanticized into the sister who taught her everything - ended up in an impossible drug-infused situation, and why Katey can't bring herself to inform her parents about it, is unravelled in this mysterious and revelatory novel.
