The only Asian American partner at a prestigious law firm sees his professional and personal life demolished when he is…
put on trial for murder. Three decades later, his children reunite to uncover the truth and try to salvage what remains of their family.Thirty years ago, John Lo was acquitted of the murder of an employee he was having an affair with. The repercussions of that long-ago event still haunt his adult children. Brennan, a lawyer following in her father&’s footsteps in more ways than one, has always maintained that the trial got it right. Hunter, a disgruntled war correspondent whose similarities to his father run more than skin-deep, believes their father got away with murder. Their opposing convictions have pushed them apart. Now, spurred by their mother&’s failing health, the estranged siblings decide to reconcile their differences by reinvestigating the murder to come to a definitive conclusion.Told in a dual timeline that moves between John&’s perspective thirty years prior and Brennan and Hunter&’s present-day investigation, Hollow Spaces is a moving portrait of a flawed man&’s shocking fall from grace and a gripping exploration of race in corporate America, filial loyalty, ambition, and the fallout of a sensational trial for those caught in its wake.
