A Sudden Light: A Novel

The bestselling author of The Art of Racing in the Rain presents a long-awaited new novel in which a boy trying to save his parentsâ€™ marriage uncovers a vast legacy of family secrets.

In the summer of 1990, fourteen-year-old Trevor Riddell gets his first glimpse of Riddell House. Built from the spoils of a massive timber fortune, the legendary family mansion is constructed of giant whole trees and is set on a huge estate overlooking Seattleâ€™s Puget Sound. Trevorâ€™s bankrupt parents have begun a trial separation, and his father, Jones Riddell, has brought Trevor to Riddell House with a goal: to join forces with his sister, Serena, dispatch the ailing and elderly Grandpa Samuel to a nursing home, sell off the house and property for development, divide up the profits, and live happily ever after.

But as Trevor explores the houseâ€™s secret stairways and hidden rooms, he discovers a spirit lingering in Riddell House whose agenda is at odds with the family plan. Only Trevorâ€™s willingness to face the dark past of his forefathers will reveal the key to his familyâ€™s future.

Spellbinding and atmospheric, A Sudden Light is rich with unconventional characters, scenes of transcendent natural beauty, and unforgettable moments of emotional truth that reflect Garth Steinâ€™s outsized capacity for empathy and keen understanding of human motivationâ€”a triumphant work of a master storyteller at the height of his power.
