What if abandoning your family actually saved you?

At 47, tech entrepreneur August's life is unraveling. On a desperate family holiday in England, a sip of ancient beer transports her to an alternate reality where mushrooms pulse with power and women commune with the fungal network beneath their feet.

Taken in by Margaret, a midwife with dangerous secrets, August discovers a world where brewing beer might be her way home-or her reason to stay. When Margaret's community faces persecution, August must choose between two families, two worlds, two versions of herself.

A speculative fiction debut about midlife transformation and the courage to put yourself first.
