A dentist accepts a short temporary job somewhere in the provinces, hoping it will last, as a baby is on the way. It is strangely cold; snow arrives in July. Three generations on, the lake where people used to swim is solid ice down to the bed. Through three narrators who cannot be trusted, this future vision tightens around a frozen society and a fast-shifting world.
