Lake City

Set in Seattle's Lake City neighborhood during the 2001 holiday season, this audiobook follows Lane Bueche as he navigates a turbulent landscape shaped by the aftermath of 9/11 and the ongoing tech-boom gentrification. While nursing his own wounds and seeking to win back his estranged wife, Lane becomes entangled in a morally complex scheme when hired by a wealthy couple to manipulate a troubled birth mother. As he balances the interests of both families, Lane grapples with questions of privilege, loyalty, and the true meaning of doing the right thing for the sake of a child's future.
