Roosevelt, Michigan is an inversion of The Great Gatsby for the 21st century. When Buddy Henshaw returns home to Michigan a decade after faking his death, he hopes to recapture his first love Lily. Instead, he founds an artists’ colony in a desolate downtown and parties his way into a series of murders. Echoing the language of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Roosevelt, Michigan is a love letter to house shows and the extraordinary relationships that support folk and roots music. From a touching affair to a mentorship that goes violently wrong, Brock takes readers to the kind of unforgettable night where no one is sure what’s in the punch, but everyone is enjoying the journey - until people start to die.
