In a city teeming with stories, how do lost souls find one another? Itās a question Meg Rhys doesnāt think sheās asking. Meg is a self-identified spinster librarian, satisfied with living with her cat, stacks of books, and her dead sisterās ghost in her New York City apartment. Then she becomes obsessed with an intriguing library patron and the haunted house heās trying to research. The house has its own story to tell too, of love and war, of racismās fallout and the ghost story that is gentrification, and of Brooklyn before it was Brooklyn. What follows is an exploration of what home is, how we live with loss, who belongs in the city and to whom the city belongs, and the possibilities and power of love.
