The object of her fantasies, a musician, he’s the last of a dying breed in this story set during the final days of lightkeeping before automation.

Things sour when isolation and Hugh, harbourer of secrets deadlier than she can imagine, turn as brutal as the forces of nature鈥攁nd of self-deception鈥攖hat threaten to engulf all three. A tender yet heartbreaking story of one woman’s reckoning.
