Nike

Fiction. Set in the red light district of Athens in the late 1980s, NIKE is a dark modern retelling of the story of the goddess of Victory. Maya Brennan returns to Athens after a trip to the Middle East to find that her boyfriend Jezz is dead, their money is gone, and their roommate has disappeared. Haunted by images of Jezz, and beset with memories exultant and brutal, Maya is drawn again into a violent and surreal subculture of hotel running and passport trafficking.
