SUIT OF LIGHTS
An English teacher at a school for 3-D animators grows fascinated with their field--connected to a forgotten photography college in his hometown--when his estranged daughter arrives with news of her mother’s disappearance in Mexico. After an accident in an abandoned powerhouse, they must return to the prairie, making amends by triangulating their past, their present, and their future.

Trickling south then by dark capillaries east of Broad, twisting for home, he was startled when the ground gave softly at his step.
