An extinction event left behind a wild new planet, and Elizabeth is in that wilderness alone, searching for her teenage daughter and realizing that, just like the plants and animals she sees evolving in the blink of an eye, she must become someone she never thought possible.

When human bones are discovered in a Mississippi river bed, a loner with peculiar gifts returns to her small town to probe the origins of her mother’s long-ago disappearance and confront the ghosts of her family, both living and dead.
