Out of Place (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781953236043)

A research institute in the Mojave Desert falls under suspicion in the aftermath of 9/11. With skeptical eye and fearless ear to the ground, Diane Lefer explores the human cost of the security state. In a novel spanning cultures and continents, an international cast of richly imagined characters have in common an unease that may well be true of most of us: feeling - or being seen as - out of place.
