When it comes to the people we love, we don’t always see clearly…

Lena Lingemann draws from her psychological background in an edgy and contemporary novel that not only dissects sibling relationships, but delves into issues between men and women as they define their sexual likes and dislikes and explore what it means to be a soul mate.

Calla McCrell’s sister, Faye, wins the love of everyone who matters, from their parents to the man Calla believes is her soul mate, Ian Sterling. As a result, Calla struggles with an inner demon—jealousy—that thrives even after Faye and Ian die in a plane crash. Calla goes through her sister’s personal effects expecting to encounter some variation of heaven-on-earth but instead discovers the horror that was her sister’s life. Not only was the ethereal Faye an emotional and sexual misfit, but her dream-come-true husband sadistically controlled her every move and threatened harm to those she loved most.

With truth comes power. By exposing fatal flaws in her sister, Calla can gain retribution for a lifetime of resentment. But Smoked Glass isn’t just about whether to reveal the truth; it speaks to the elusiveness of truth. You define the outline of this shapeshifter only to have it take another form. Clearly her parents don’t know the truth, but does Calla?
