Consumed by grief and driven by a fierce sense of urgency, Franny Stone embarks on an impossible journey—to follow the last known group of Arctic terns on their final migration to Antarctica. She persuades the captain of one of the few remaining fishing vessels to let her accompany the voyage, and soon finds herself navigating not just perilous seas but also the unsettling depths of her own trauma. With each mile she inches closer to the birds, fragments of her past begin to emerge—an impulsive marriage, a terrible secret, and a yearning for a connection that may no longer exist. The voyage becomes an exploration of extinction—of species, ecosystems, and personal history—intertwining nature’s collapse with the unraveling of Franny’s identity. Ultimately, it is not just a quest to witness a migration, but an urgent search for hope, redemption, and what it truly means to belong.
