Crackles with urgency and humanity...a book made to meet the moment. A must read. -Katie
Lattari author of Dark Things I Adore For fans of The Last Thing He Told Me comes a
page-turning thriller about hidden identities and the terrifying realities of climate change.
The truth won't always set you free... Ess wakes up alone on a sailboat in the remote Pacific
Northwest with no memory of who she is or how she got there. She finds a note but it's more
warning than comfort: Start over. Don't make yourself known. Don't look back. Ess must have
answers. She sails over a turbulent ocean to a town hundreds of miles away that she hopes
might offer insight. The chilling clues she uncovers point to a desperate attempt at erasing
her former life. But why? And someone is watching her...someone who knows she must never learn
her truth. In Ess's world the earth is precariously balanced at a climate tipping point and
she is perched at the edge of a choice: which life does she want? The one taken from her-and
the dangerous secret that was buried-or the new one she can make for herself? A galvanizing
riddle that is just as unmooring as it seems this sharp character-driven odyssey explores a
future challenged by our quickly changing world and the choices we must make to save what
matters most.
