A tense electronic and experimental instrumental sequence evokes the illicit energy of Ireland’s rave scene while leaving room for the book’s mystery, betrayal, and lingering guilt. Three vocal tracks close the playlist, connecting rave euphoria and emotional isolation to the story’s pulse-pounding music and fractured relationships.
