The Sun Collective

In The Sun Collective, a gripping novel by a PEN/Malamud Award winner, the lives of four characters intersect against the backdrop of a local activist group that hides darker intentions. Tim Brettigan, a once-promising actor, has vanished, prompting his mother’s desperate search through the city’s streets and community spaces. Meanwhile, Christina, a young woman falling into addiction, becomes entranced by the group's charismatic leader and revolutionary ideals. This unsettling story examines the complexities of guilt, anxiety, and hope amid the haunting realities of modern American life.
