A Supernatural Urban FantasyBy Kerra Quinn
Length1h
About this audiobook
After walking out of yet another soul-deadening job, painter Sorcha Byrne wanders the streets of San Francisco exhausted and untethered - and finds a library she swears has never been there before.
Inside, an ageless Librarian guides her to an ochre-bound book: Where the Light Breaks: Painters of the Beat Era.
When Sorcha opens it, the world dissolves.
She awakens to find herself in North Beach, 1957 — a world of jazz, fog, bookstores, and bohemian artists.
There, Sorcha finally finds the belonging she has always longed for through a brilliant painter named Imani, who teaches her that her sensitivity is not weakness, but a gift.
Now Sorcha must choose between the life she was born into and the one she has always longed for - between belonging to the past and becoming the artist she was meant to be.
Where the Light Breaks is a haunting, luminous supernatural tale about art, longing, time, and the terrible courage of becoming yourself.
