The trees will die...over Quin's dead body.

As the last tree-whisperer left on Earth, Quin Lafleur interfaces with trees and downloads their knowledge into her mind. 

But when the environment starts to collapse, the trees find themselves missing something crucial. 

Quin sacrifices everything to keep her saplings alive and spread more to colony planets. But she is wearing down and burdened by secrets—an old love she can’t let go of and the daughter she gave away. 

When Quin falls mysteriously ill, the touch she uses to communicate with saplings and fight their decline sickens and kills them, as well as the mushroom that translates tree-language for her. 

Now, the survival of tree-kind—her life, her sanity, and her relationship with her daughter... are all at stake.
