The award-winning author of Station Eleven and The Glass Hotel presents a novel that weaves together themes of art, time, love, and plague, spanning from a Vancouver island in 1912 to a moon colony three centuries later. Eighteen-year-old Edwin St. Andrew crosses the Atlantic by steamship, exiled from society after a dinner party outburst. Captivated by the Canadian wilderness, he is jolted by the sound of a violin in an airship terminal. Fast forward two centuries, and renowned writer Olive Llewellyn embarks on a book tour across Earth, though her true home is a moon colony characterized by its striking architecture. Within her bestselling pandemic novel lies a curious passage: a man playing the violin in an echoing terminal as a forest looms around him. Meanwhile, detective Gaspery-Jacques Roberts, from the dark Night City, is tasked with investigating an anomaly in the North American wilderness. His search reveals a tapestry of disrupted lives: an exiled earl's son descending into madness, a writer stranded amid a pandemic, and a childhood friend from Night City, all of whom are on the brink of extraordinary actions that could alter the universe's timeline.
