When high-mountain dweller Anya serendipitously ended the hope-crushing decades without any human births by sleeping with a wayward monk, she set in motion generations of power struggle. The ascetic monks ordained the terms by which women may seek children, keeping some of the babies born inside the monastery walls. Met with early resistance by the Sea Clan's matriarchs, the monks imposed harsher conditions, endangering the lives of the young women who climb the mountain to seek a child.
Two generations later, Malva leaves her ship with trepidation, determined to help the Sea Clan carry on but worried about the tales of young women who never returned. When Malva encounters Scavengers, men poisoned by the Blue Dust from the toxic detritus still littering the seas, she falls under the Dust's sway and sails north at its behest.
The elderly Sea Mothers still blame Anya for her role in taking one of their twin daughters on behalf of the monks. But to find and save granddaughter Malva, they must collaborate with her. Tracking Malva to the shores of the Far North, by the relics of past cities, they discover a secret that could break the monks' iron hold.
Can they overcome past animosities and work together, not just for Malva but for all generations to come?
