Allie Krane is heavily pregnant when she and her husband flee urban life after a rash of eco-terrorism breaks out in their city. They reinvent themselves as the proprietors of a northwoods fishing resort, where they live in relative peace for nearly two decades. That is, until two strange children arrive by canoe. Like the small ecological disasters lapping yearly at their shore, have the problems of the modern world finally found Allie, her husband, and their troubled cypher of a teenage daughter? This eco-novel of a family, told from three points of view, explores how we remake our lives once we open our hearts to all the news we've chosen to ignore.

I love a good post apocalyptic or dystopian story. This one was a little odd in the lack of urgency portrayed throughout the book - maybe because both the protagonist and the narrator reading her voice seemed like they were way chilled out on mood altering drugs? I dunno. If America was slowly going underwater due to climate change (which it is) would we all just try to keep living our lives like nothing was happening really? I guess if you could buy a resort in the North Woods of Wisconsin and keep going, maybe. I was left pretty disappointed and depressed at the end of the story, but, maybe that’s exactly how it will feel when Florida is six feet underwater?
