Glory, a young piano prodigy, is missing.
Glory’s mother died when she
was young, leaving her alone with her father and a strict practice
schedule. With about an hour of free time a day, Glory lives an isolated
life revolving around practice, school work, and recitals.
When Frank moves in next door,
Glory is immediately drawn to him. Frank’s artistic and romantic nature
is exactly what Glory needs. Frank nurtures Glory and gives her
something she’s been missing from her demanding father – love.
As her relationship with Frank
deepens, Glory begins to have trouble at her recitals. For reasons
unknown to her or her father, she randomly breaks into playing
Chopsticks in the middle of her classical pieces.
The reader is left to put
together the pieces of Glory’s life using handwritten notes, YouTube
videos, IM transcripts, etc. The mystery of Glory’s disappearance and
the validity of the reality she relies on unfolds in the pages of this
unique multi-genre book.
