'The story of a present-day Norwegian eco-campaigner alternates with that of a French family in the overheated future.
They are in a camp for refugees from eco-disaster – but it’s not all doom and gloom. They find friendship, love and an unexpected gift from the past' Wendy Holden, Daily Mail
2019: seventy-year-old Signe sets out on a hazardous voyage to cross an entire ocean in only a sailboat.
She is haunted by the loss of the love of her life, and is driven by a singular and all-consuming mission to make it back to him.
2041: David flees with his young daughter, Lou, from a war-torn Southern Europe plagued by drought. They are on a desperate search to reunite with their family when they find Signe’s abandoned sailboat in a parched French garden, miles away from the nearest shore.
As David and Lou discover personal effects from Signe’s travels, their journey of survival and hope weaves together with Signe’s, forming a heartbreaking, inspiring story about the power of nature and the human spirit.
