The latest novel by Claire Geoghegan, the new generation queen of short stories: Where there are secrets, there is shame, and there are no secrets in this house. Dad put me in foster care with the Kingsleys. They gave me a bath and put me into clean and tidy clothes. We fetch water together, do housework, enjoy afternoon bread, and watch the nine o'clock news. I love this home with no secrets. One moonlit night, my neighbor told me that the clothes I had been wearing were Kingsley's son's clothes. He is dead.
