From the author of A Wilderness Within, the national award-winning biography of Sigurd F. Olson, comes this novel (the first in a trilogy) that captures the natural philosophy and environmental advocacy of one of our nation's leading nature writers from the 20th century.

As the climate crisis fuels mass migration and social unrest in the 2060s, Andrew Hochevar, a young priest in northern Minnesota, has a mysterious, powerful encounter one hot August day at Sigurd Olson's Listening Point, near the gateway to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The experience upends his traditional understanding of God, the Church, and his own calling. It also propels him along a spiritual journey that brings healing to the sick, puts him at odds with his bishop, and threatens a growing movement of white supremacists.
