In a small, quiet village where the townsfolk want for nothing, the silence is about to be shattered.
As the next generation prepares to leave the nest, the comfortable boundaries of the village begin to blur. Kevin heads to the towering Grand City to chase his culinary dreams, Sabrina embarks on a nationwide book tour to outrun her grief, and Belle takes to the high seas in desperate search of a lost friend. But they soon discover that the world outside is far more complex than they ever imagined.
Meanwhile, back home, a fracture in time threatens to undo reality itself. A long-buried secret involving Grandpa's estranged twin brother has caused a schism, birthing a dark, mirror-image of the village that is slowly encroaching on their world.
Now, the fates of the villagers are tied to four mystical steam trains hurtling toward an inevitable crossroad. To save their future, they must confront the ghosts of their pasts and the alternate lives they never led. When the smoke clears and the worlds collide, who will remain to remember the way things were?
Book III of The Cities & Villages Saga is a sweeping tale of love, loss, and the heavy price of setting things right.
