As the world's supply of Thought goes missing, Becker Drain is called to help solve the mystery in The Seems, the secret world that keeps the known world running. Could the resistance group known as The Tide be behind what might be Becker's final mission? Extended metaphors abound in this rich fantasy world built largely on deus ex machina storytelling.
