Last things

Eight-year-old Grace Davitt navigates a world split between her parents' opposing views: her ornithologist mother believes in lake monsters and ancient myths, while her rationalist father champions science and order. As her mother's obsession deepens, Grace is drawn into a strange realm of belief, leaving her father increasingly isolated. Grace embarks on a journey across the country, from New Orleans to the Nevada desert, as she grapples with her conflicting loyalties and seeks to understand the true nature of reality.
