Ghost Light

Award-Winner: Bronze Medalist in the 2024 Living Now Book Awards for the category General Fiction. De Vere takes us back to his college days for a taste of unrequited love and ghosts in empty theaters. Trapped in a bad engagement, he plunges headlong into a questionable friendship with a young woman from work. Interwoven with tales of specters and the stage, this sad story of missed opportunities and youthful angst culminates in an examination of the cruelty of mankind and the beauty of art and connection.
