If, then

Kate Hope Day

In a sleepy Oregon town at the base of a dormant volcano, four neighbours find their lives upended when they see visions of themselves in an alternate reality, and have to question the choices they've made as natural disaster looms. Ginny, a devoted surgeon, is troubled by a vision of a beautiful colleague in her bed; her husband Mark, a wildlife scientist, foresees imminent and devastating natural disaster. Next door lives Samara, a young estate agent, who sees a vision of her late mother looking healthy and vibrant; opposite is Cass, a brilliant scholar struggling with the demands of a small baby, who glimpses an image of herself pregnant all over again, just as she is returning to her game-changing research.When the volcano begins to rumble, it becomes clear that these visions are not what they first seemed, and that the lives of this close-knit community are in grave danger
