An impossible journey. The will to survive. Franny Stone has always been a wanderer. By following the oceans tides and the birds that soar above she can forget the losses that have haunted her life. But when the wild she so loves begins to disappear Franny can no longer wander without a destination. She arrives in remote Greenland with one purpose: to find the worlds last flock of Arctic terns and follow them on their final migration. She convinces Ennis Malone captain of the Saghani to take her onboard winning over his salty eccentric crew with promises that the birds she is tracking will lead them to fish.As the Saghani fights its way south Frannys new shipmates begin to realize that the beguiling scientist in their midst is not who she seems. Battered by night terrors accumulating a pile of letters to her husband and dead set on following the terns at any cost Franny is full of dark secrets. When the story of her past begins to unspool Ennis and his crew must ask themselves what Franny is really running toward—and running from.Propelled by a narrator as fierce and fragile as the terns she is following Migrations is a shatteringly beautiful ode to the wild places and creatures now threatened. But at its heart it is about the lengths we will go to the very edges of the world for the people we love.(less)
