For fans of Cloud Atlas and Station Eleven, this spellbinding debut follows intricately linked characters over centuries as humanity strives to rebuild after a climate plague. Beginning in 2030, a grieving archeologist arrives in the Arctic Circle to continue his deceased daughter’s work at the Batagaika crater, where melting permafrost reveals long-buried secrets, including the remains of a girl who succumbed to an ancient virus. The Arctic Plague, once unleashed, reshapes life on Earth, compelling humanity to find inventive ways to embrace possibility amid tragedy. In a theme park for terminally ill children, a cynical employee falls for a mother desperate to save her infected son. A heartbroken scientist searching for a cure discovers a second chance at fatherhood when one of his test subjects, a pig, gains the ability to speak. A widowed painter and her teenage granddaughter embark on a quest to find a new home planet. From funerary skyscrapers to hotels for the dead and interstellar starships, the narrative takes readers on a compassionate journey across continents, centuries, and celestial bodies, exploring the resilience of the human spirit, our capacity to dream, and the connections that unite us all in the universe.
