In this ferociously imaginative novel, abortion is once again illegal in America, in vitro fertilisation is banned, and the Personhood Amendment grants rights of life, liberty and property to every embryo. In a small Oregon fishing town, five very different women navigate these new barriers. This is a story of resilience, transformation and hope in tumultuous - even frightening - times.

See, Jimmy Bings Walton Jr. was born with the greatest gift in process, almost a superpower, if you will, from nearly the time he came out of his mother’s womb.

Story
In the mountainous town of Gethsemane, 17th-century Cape Verde, a mysterious woman's arrival sparks a series of strange events that will leave the town's inhabitants changed: men sporadically blind in the afternoons, children disappearing and reappearing without warning and infertile women pregnant with the memories of past births. In present-day London, a quartet are brought together by their fascination with ritual, miracles and a life beyond the mundane.
