A contemporary woman wakes up on a stone staircase in a baroque palace, not speaking the language of the place and lacking the chemical signature that allows people to identify each other within the complex social hierarchy. She is both dumb and invisible. Unable to communicate in words, she resorts to dance... .

A man runs a diner in present-day America; he is also a freedom fighter in the northern, courtly realm of Dinesen. He has slipped between these two worlds for thirty years without knowing how or why, becoming an exile even among exiles. His people are abused foreigners at home, the servants of strangers, yet he cannot bring them away with him. They are bound, not by their overlords, but by their world itself, through a ritual known as the burning of the furrows. Only he and his family are free - for a time. Now that time is ending.
