Migrations
What you need to know before your trail
Franny Stone is determined to go to the end of the earth, following the last of the Arctic terns on what may be their final migration to Antarctica.
As animal populations plummet, Franny talks her way onto one of the few remaining boats heading south. But as she and the eccentric crew travel further from shore and safety, the dark secrets of Franny’s life begin to unspool.
Haunted by love and violence, Franny must confront what she is really running towards – and from.
Travel Guide
Greenland
Franny’s new mission is to go to Greenland to find the world’s lost flock of Artic terns – she will follow them on their final migration and the journey they share is quite remarkable.
Migrations is set in a near future where most of the world’s wildlife has died out due to climate change.
“It isn’t fair to be the kind of creature who is able to love but unable to stay.”
Arctic Terns are iconic breeders in Greenland, forming large colonies, especially in Disko Bay
