An island is surrounded by a deadly fog that covers the rest of the earth. On the island live some villagers, and three elders, and an AI that lives inside their heads. I think it was this set-up that made me pick up this book, and yes, it's an intriguing setting and I think Turton combines it with a murder mystery tale in a satisfying way. But I felt quite detached from the story, probably because the AI which narrates a good deal of the story is detached from the characters, and so I found it hard to care about them and their travails.
