Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In a world where every eye is fitted with a neural implant and every street is painted over with curated light, there is one place the signal has never reached. Candor, Washington, sits in the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains, a dying fishing town of rotting piers, shuttered canneries, and people who have spent their whole lives looking at the world exactly as it is.Then a hiker stumbles out of the clear-cut, her implant dead and her nerves shredded, and asks the town doctor a question nobody in Candor has ever thought to ask: what have you been looking at Within months, the city people are paying to find out. Sixteen-year-old Tessa Cole, who has never seen a digital billboard in her life, becomes the most sought-after guide on the coast, hired by tourists desperate to hear what is really behind their own edited eyes. Silas Vance, heir to a bankrupt cannery, sees salvation in the crowds and raises a cell tower over the bay to cash in. A charismatic mother leads a growing band of refugees into the mud of the clear-cut to escape the curated world. And an undercover agent arrives under a false name with a grant, a cover story, and orders she doesn't fully understand.But the old doctor has started hearing his dead wife's words in strangers' mouths. The women of the valley have begun to know things they cannot know. And when the government moves to register every newborn in the county, it becomes clear that Candor was never an accident of geography. It was a secret, buried under the moss for forty years, and it is waking up.\*Many Hands\* is a gripping speculative thriller about perception, power, and the cost of seeing clearly, set among loggers, fishermen, and diner cooks who discover that the most dangerous thing a person can own is an unedited view of the world. Atmospheric, unsettling, and deeply human, it asks what we would give up to be shown a prettier reality, and what a small town might risk to keep the truth.…
