Desperados and cowgirls, magical beatniks and Hollywood hucksters and galaxy-crossed young lovers and jet-winging hotshots, lost souls and unexpected angels. These are intertwined short stories of not-so-ordinary people caught in the great UFO scare during the summer of 1952, when America was riveted by nationwide reports of strange flying lights and objects. The stories range from the deadly serious, to the lighthearted to deep mystery noir-all in the mood and tenor of mid-century America. From a lonely road through the Arizona desert to Santa Monica Boulevard, midnight Michigan highways to Everglades mangroves, drag strips out on the Kansas prairie to the skies above the Chesapeake Bay, the people in The Lights will all be forever changed by something that is miraculous, spellbinding and unexplainable.
