We Are the Light

A novel about the everyday strength of love, the shifting sands of sorrow, and the fact that in every person—even deeply immersed in grief—there is light. Right before Christmas, a teenager with a weapon bursts into the Majestic cinema of a small town; people die. For a long time the town sinks into despair and darkness. But one day Lucas, who lost his wife during the shooting and writes unanswered letters to his psychoanalyst, discovers a tent in his backyard, where the younger brother of the shooter is hiding. Why did he come here? What does he want from Lucas? It seems that in Majestic, after this meeting, something begins to change—and the understanding comes that love, hope, and the future belong to those who are ready to hear each other.
