Anthony Fennell, a journalist, is in pursuit of a story buried at the bottom of the sea: the network of tiny fibre-optic tubes that carry the world's information across the ocean floor - and what happens when they break. A darkly epic novel about connection, disconnection and destruction - from bestselling and National Book Award-winning author Colum McCann.
Avery, Isabella, Odina, Lee y Josie son jóvenes, salvajes e inseparables desde que se conocieron en un campamento de surf en una pequeña isla frente a la costa de Carolina del Sur. Están viviendo el verano de sus vidas hasta que, de pronto, Josie desaparece sin dejar rastro.
Diez años después aparece una pista…
Augustus Everett is an acclaimed author of literary fiction. January Andrews writes bestselling romance. When she pens a Happily Ever After, he kills off his entire cast.
They’re polar opposites.
In fact, the only thing they have in common is that for the next three months they’re living in neighboring beach houses, broke and bogged down with writer’s block.
Then one hazy evening, one thing leads to another and they strike a deal designed to force them out of their creative ruts: Augustus will spend the summer writing something happy, and January will pen the next Great American Novel. She’ll take him on field trips worthy of any rom-com montage, and he’ll take her to interview surviving members of a backwoods death cult (obviously). Everyone will finish a book and no one will fall in love. Really.
