History sleeps beneath them all, and she will wake it.

Lafayette Eloi stole something incredibly precious. Something she knows her government would kill to keep under their protection. No, under their control.

She stole knowledge. Knowledge of the past of all her people.

She got away with it, thanks to her new friends in the capital city. Tristan Carey knows more about the world than Lafayette ever knew existed. And Dieter Bohm brings the most crucial element of all.

His family owns a dirigible. With that, their plan to reach the Arctic regions in the far north becomes just barely possible.

The government chases hot on their heels. And the resources at their command eclipse anything Lafayette and her friends can muster.

Lafayette will never quit. Her only hope for a future lies in uncovering the past. And sharing all she learns with her entire planet. No matter what the price.
