"A fighter jet vanishes in 1956 and, after a brief inquiry by the Royal Canadian Air Force, it is decided that the plane and its two pilots are at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean and, thus, gone: case closed. But what if the young wife of one of the pilots refuses to accept that her husband is dead? And what if, years later, it becomes clear that the plane crashed in the wild Callaghan Lake country near Whistler Mountain and the pilots survived that crash and could have made it out and home if the official response had been less hasty? Inspired by the mysterious disappearance of the playwright's pilot-father in a routine flight from the Comox Base on Vancouver Island, Our Ghosts is at once a taut investigative tale, a moving testament to the love and tenacity of a woman determined to uncover the truth, and a daughter's journey toward learning to live with her ghosts."--
