I 1500-tallets England strejfer en forældreløs pige rundt. Det er mørke tider: epidemier raser, brutalitet og barbari råder. Pigen kommer i lære hos en kvindelig smed, og det er netop smedekunsten og et uventet venskab, der holder hende oppe. Femhundrede år senere har en ny epidemi ramt England og verden. Sandy Gray, en billedkunstner midt i livet, frygter at smitte sin skrøbelige far, der er indlagt efter et slagtilfælde. Derfor vil hun heller ikke se nogen mennesker, hun har i det hele taget besluttet sig for at melde sig ud af samfundet.

As an only child reeling from the demolition of her parents’ toxic marriage, the New York City underground music scene offers a young Ali a different family of misfits and talented outsiders to belong to. She becomes the bass player for edgy band Speedball Baby, a decision that will take her around the world—from onstage at the legendary CBGBs to the red-light district of Amsterdam. She’s often the only girl in a broken-down tour van, being strip-searched at the Croatian border, chased by lunatics, and navigating the seedy underbelly of a male-dominated music scene.

What happens when you run into Death in a busy train station? (You know he’s Death because when he smiles, your cell phone goes dead.) What if your lover falls in love with a tree? Should you be jealous? From the woman pursued by a band of bagpipers in full regalia to the artist who’s built a seven-foot boat out of secondhand copies of The Great Gatsby, Smith’s characters are offbeat, charming, sexy, and as wonderfully complex as life itself.
