On a cold December night, Summer Spencer disappears from the rooftop of her Harlem brownstone without a trace. The police are slow to act, the media barely notices, and only her twin sister, Autumn, refuses to let her absence fade into silence.

As Autumn searches for answers, her investigation begins to blur the lines between reality and delusion. Haunted by memories of their shared past, she uncovers painful truths about family, race, and womanhood in a society that too easily forgets missing Black women.

Tense, lyrical, and profoundly emotional, Speaking of Summer is both a psychological thriller and a searing social commentary. Kalisha Buckhanon explores grief, mental health, and the quiet violence of invisibility — asking what happens when the world refuses to look for those who have been lost.
