The night the Mounties came, my sleep had already been disturbed by a small but insistent wail coming from the garden below my bedroom window.

There was a baby in my cabbage patch.

And so begins the tale of Arlys, who grows vegetables and roses, and Chicory, the baby she adopts and nurtures in a farmhouse on a small coastal island. Can she keep Chicory safe forever or will the girl eventually fall in love with a damaged prince, will the carefully constructed edifice of motherhood and care survive or collapse, taking the roses down with it? Is there a happy ending for Chicory, for Torque, the edgy street artist who makes dark and beautiful murals in chalk, only to see them wash away in rain? Tower is a modern fable, an intricate tapestry of longing and danger, is a pattern shifting over time and place, the tendrils ready to wrap us into its story.
