About the Novel

In a dying American town on the edge of progress, two estranged brothers orbit the gravity of their shared past. As protest erupts in the streets and machinery carves through ancient fields, a body emerges from the earth—forcing them to confront the violence that shaped their blood. Part elegy for lost American spaces, part revelation of buried truth, this is a story about the weight of silence and the cost of speaking too late.

Excerpt

"First came bacteria. A vast, undulating sea of bacteria - single-celled life forms duplicating and evolving in perpetual growth and flux. Their unseen labors sculpted the world around us into its present form through eons of constant transformation."
