What if summer never ends?
The residents of a village outside Moscow wake up to discover that the road out to the motorway has disappeared without a trace and the usual paths into the woods somehow lead back into the village. And the woods? Overnight their weedy and rubbish-strewn copse has become a dark and overgrown forest inhabited by something mysterious and unfriendly. Anyone who makes it into the trees either vanishes into thin air or returns, not quite themselves . . . And, of course, the Internet, radio, and TV have stopped working and the weather never changes. And time seems to loop seamlessly from one crop of apples and cabbages into the next.
There are strange noises, and strange visitations. The villagers are plagued by odd thoughts and desires, and quiet but pervasive voices call from the river. Objects mutate; phones and radios emit strange mutterings; people disappear. What begins as a one-sided manifestation of the weird, becomes weirder still as the villagers split into factions and odd alliances with the new "neighbors" are formed. Meanwhile the forest looms closer every day.
Is Katya, a solitary young woman, the only one beginning to glimpse what is going on?
