The Distant Dead
by Heather Young
***Shortlisted for the 2021 Edgar Allan Poe Awards***
Set in a small Nevada town in the desert, The Distant Dead is beautiful, evocative and quite sad, with so many characters who can’t escape their circumstances. Once you get into the story, it’s hard to put down and you might even learn something about math and anthropology along the way.
