Under the seductive spell of Moira, a mix of mystic, cult leader, and prophet, these haunted men and broken women will go in search of a mysterious polar promised land-but the journey may not take them where they expect it to . . .

"A delight…"
Philip Pullman, author of The Amber Spyglass
"His sympathy for such a range of characters in their crazinesses, their various kinds of loneliness, their sheer comedy is wonderful. I think it's one of his very best."

Owen King, author of Double Feature
