Far from civilization, the villagers of Grindle Ferry live a quiet, self-made life—until a mysterious box appears on the riverbank. Inside sits Walter Peck, a stranger with a secret, and a signal that draws the attention of machines from the outside world. Suddenly, the village that had long been forgotten must adapt to threats it never imagined.
Paths are rerouted, routines scrambled, and even a pig named Chairman joins the chaos.
That Very Day is a story of resilience, human connection, and clever defiance, a tale about a place untouched by maps, yet unshakeable because its people refuse to be found.
