Girls Fall Down

Nominated for a Toronto Book Award!

A girl faints in the Toronto subway. Her friends are taken to the hospital with unexplained rashes; they complain about a funny smell in the subway. Swarms of police arrive, and then the hazmat team. As panic ripples through the city, Alex encounters an old girlfriend – the one who shattered his heart in the eighties. But now Susie-Paul is fighting her own crisis: her schizophrenic brother has been missing for months, and the streets of Toronto are more hostile than ever.
