"For twenty years, Theo Strahl's been a back-lane scavenger and inventor and people have begun calling the things he makes art. He loves his family and friends, but on his fortieth birthday, an entity called Ford commands him to build a spacecraft to escape this dying planet. After Ford offers up a series of apparent miracles, Theo accepts the assignment. As he plans the ark, he begins to drift from his life. Launch is about family, the enduring imprint of trauma, and the viability of hope."--
