Mike was a lucky child: A vacation house on Long Island. Famous family friends. An Ivy League education. And also an older brother, Lyle, who looked out for him and protected him from his parents' volatile marriage.
In 2001, Mike is a summer intern at a magazine in Hong Kong. Sent on assignment to Bangkok to interview backpacker kids doing drugs and to track down a brilliant journalist gone AWOL, Mike finds the city electric with violence and hedonism, a dangerous blur of drugs and oblivion. Nothing goes according to plan.
When terrible news arrives from home, Mike rushes back to America. In the aftermath of tragedy, his brother, Lyle, is seeing things. He's unstable and suffering from visions of an imaginary third brother.
And then, a clear September morning is broken by catastrophe. While the Twin Towers burn, Mike makes an epic trek through the ghostly streets of New York to find his brother, to save him.
From Patpong to the World Trade Center to Harvard Yard, as his life and country come apart, Mike struggles to find his footing and go on. The joke, it turns out, is on him.
