Nate Cartwright has lost everything. His family. His career. The last thread of hope he was clinging to. So he goes back to the one place that ever made sense, his family’s cabin in the Oregon mountains.
But the cabin isn’t empty. A stranger named Alex is there. And with him is a girl who calls herself Artemis Darth Vader. She’s ten. She’s extraordinary. And she’s not entirely human.
As mysterious forces close in, Nate is drawn into something far bigger than himself. Something strange. Something luminous.
In the ruins of his old life, Nate must decide whether to wallow in what he’s lost or fight for the fragile, unexpected future he’s been offered.
Some hearts are broken. Others are transformed.
