<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>See the girl in the trees. Catch her if you can.</p><p><br></p><p>Several centuries ago, a group of ecologists escaped the breakdown of a society</p><p>ravaged by climate change by vanishing into giant, genetically engineered forests in</p><p>the North American west. Dwelling among vast canopies that hover several thousand</p><p>feet above the earth, their descendants fear the cannibals roaming far beneath them</p><p>and cling to the teachings of their sacred text, <em>The Book of Silvanus</em>.</p><p><br></p><p>Sixteen year-old Ostrya considers it a burden to train as the canopy's next doctor. But</p><p>her life's work has been preordained-and she's desperate to reclaim her mother's love.</p><p>When a cataclysmic storm wracks the canopy, Ostrya begins to face her doubts about</p><p>the teachings of the book and the laws of the canopy. If she is to survive, she will have</p><p>to decide if her destiny is in the treetops or on the forest floor.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Intriguingly, refreshingly different from the usual dystopian story and setting." - <em>Midwest Book Review</em></p><p><br></p><p>"D.M. Darroch writes with a poetic and lovely descriptive hand that is evocative and effective." - Donovan Literary Services</em></p><p><br></p><br>
