Téa Obreht
“I’ve loved every book Téa Obreht has written but I might love this one the most. Please put this book into the hands of everyone you know.”—Liz Moore, author of The God of the Woods
A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR: Esquire, Literary Hub, Today, Good Housekeeping, The Boston Globe
In 2024, Nina’s small-engine plane crashes into a lake in the Wyoming mountains. Her boyfriend Ben, who was flying it, is nowhere to be found. Lost and freezing on the shore, Nina is armed with only a few old protein bars, a phone with no service, and a vague hope of rescue. It is up to her to survive in the vast wilderness. But then she stumbles upon Sunrise—a town of the Old West that is strangely well maintained, but seemingly abandoned. A place that holds the missing link to a ghost story one hundred years in the making.
In 2003, Sand Daw’s golden boy Coll is putting the finishing touches on the town’s annual historical reenactment. But when an upstart would-be author comes to him with questions about one of Sunrise’s most beloved figures, it threatens to upend everything he thought he knew about the city—and himself.
In 1902, town founder, gunslinger, and legendary pulp hero Anton Vargas returns to Sunrise and quickly takes charge of a group searching for a missing boy. But who really is Vargas? What does he know about the boy’s disappearance? And why has he returned after such a long absence?
These three strangers are separated by time and circumstance. But Sunrise’s many secrets are like gunpowder: quiet, contained, until they encounter a spark. Magisterial and suspenseful, Téa Obreht’s novel challenges the myths we think we know: of heroes and villains, of the people and places to which we lay claim, and, most of all, of our own lives.

“Téa Obreht never disappoints.”—Esquire
“A Cessna plane crashes into a Wyoming lake and a young woman staggers out, uninjured. As she searches for her missing boyfriend she stumbles into an abandoned, pristine mining town where a pair of conjoined mysteries await, unraveling her sense of time and place.”—The Boston Globe
“24-year old Nina survives a plane crash in the Wyoming mountains. While searching for her boyfriend, who was flying the plane, she stumbles into a ghost town in the wilderness. There, she discovers a series of secrets that connect her to a gunslinger from a 1902 pulp novel and a historian trying to preserve the ghost town in 2003, in this triple-timeline story that asks: Who writes history, and what do they have to hide?”—Good Housekeeping
“As the novel goes on, Obreht weaves three timelines together . . . to unravel the mystery of Sunrise, the ghost town to end all ghost towns. Sorry to fangirl but: YAY.”—Literary Hub
“I’ve loved every book Téa Obreht has written but I might love this one the most. It’s tense and beautifully constructed, and it features Obreht’s signature precision when it comes to both language and emotion. Please put this book into the hands of everyone you know.”—Liz Moore, New York Times bestselling author of The God of the Woods
“Sunrise is thrilling and ingenious. In her new novel, Obreht explores this country’s troubled past, its gaps and silences, and the rich history that only new storytellers can excavate.”—Laila Lalami, bestselling author of The Dream Hotel
“Sunrise is everything you could wish for from a storyteller of Obreht’s caliber: a witty, propulsive tale of survival, a spirited reckoning with the ambivalences of American life, a deep dive into the secret histories of the West. Spellbinding and ingeniously crafted, this novel deepens Obreht’s reputation as one of our moment’s most original bards and shows the power of story to orient, investigate, and illuminate.”—Alexandra Kleeman, author of You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine and Something New Under the Sun
