Publisher's Synopsis
The year is 2040 and an envoy of the North American Union finds himself a fugitive in the Southeast Asian nation of Tinhau. In his first novel, Lundberg creates a populist backdrop that's darkly familiar. Lucas Lehrer is tasked with travelling from the North American Union to Tinhau to offer political partnership. When negotiations break down, Lucas decides to request asylum, and he soon encounters an odd series of coincidences in which his deep-seated desires start coming true. Among the backdrop of societal instability and growing nativism, he befriends a young woman who is not what she seems, and who may not be from our universe at all.
