Description

On a Welsh farm, a pregnant cow vanishes without a trace, and the day’s ordinary routines collapse into something far more unsettling. Gareth, the owner, walks the land searching for her, but the search quickly becomes a reckoning with memory, fear, and the fragile things he can’t afford to lose. As secrets and silences press in around him, the landscape turns into a pressure chamber where anxiety seeps into every thought and every pause. With Cynan Jones’s spare, lyrical intensity, the novel explores themes of absence, responsibility, and the way private dread can transform even the most familiar ground.
