The Taxonomy of Missing Persons

from The Last Signal

When a grief counselor working in a flooded coastal resettlement zone begins cataloguing the recurring dream reported by every single one of her clients — the same dream, the same figure, the same drowned street — she assumes it's mass trauma finding a shared symbol. She's wrong about what it's a symbol of. A story about the borders between collective memory and collective warning, and what happens when the dead find a more efficient way to be heard.
