Island Light

Set against the backdrop of impending war in the fall of 1990, the story intertwines the lives of three distinct characters: Nick Daggett, a Vietnam veteran running a pirate radio station; Nora Venable, a septuagenarian lesbian returning to her ancestral home; and Ruth Lambert, a New York photographer visiting her inherited property. Their lives become interconnected after a fire devastates the mansion, leading to themes of love, perseverance, and the complexities of community in this final volume of the Snow Island trilogy.
