Fire Exit by Morgan Talty
Charles Lamosway has spent years observing life across the river on Maine's Penobscot Reservation, where his neighbor Elizabeth lives. Unbeknownst to her, Elizabeth is his daughter, a secret Charles has kept hidden. As time passes without seeing her, Charles grows increasingly concerned and is forced to confront his past. He grapples with memories of a lost childhood, a love affair that ended too soon, and the tragic death of his stepfather. Amidst caring for his home, his friend Bobby, and his mother Louise, who is battling dementia, Charles faces the dilemma of whether to reveal the truth to Elizabeth. This decision could change everything she knows about her life and identity. **Fire Exit** explores themes of family, legacy, and the complexities of what we owe to one another.
