The novel begins a decade later, when Chen has just been released from prison for killing his boyfriend. He is about to return to his family's village, a poor and desolate place. With his parents gone, his sisters married, mad, or dead, there is nothing left for him there. As the story unfurls, we learn what tore this family apart and, more importantly, the truth behind the murder of Chen's boyfriend. Told in a myriad of voices, both living and dead, and moving through time with deceptive ease, Ghost Town weaves a mesmerizing web of family secrets and countryside superstitions, the search for identity and clash of cultures. "Multidimensional characters, a beautifully realized setting, and an apposite surprise ending . . . This book is excellent." -Booklist (Starred Review) [url] => https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/16318734 [pa] => [publisher] => HighBridge [purchaseModel] => INSTANT )
