The Pendulum Greenhouse Pact

About this book

Aboard the Orbiteria Conservatory, a rotating glass habitat designed to resurrect Earth's climate, ten-year-old apprentice canopy-botanist Tamsin meticulously documents her days. Struggling with mild temporal disorientation common in zero-adjustment children, she compulsively revises her observation journals to present a perfectly reliable version of herself. But when a micro-meteoroid strike destabilizes the nursery, Tamsin accidentally damages a vital lumina-vine and panics, hiding her mistake beneath synthetic compost and allowing the blame to fall on her meticulous twelve-year-old partner, Orion. As Orion's standing wavers and their once-joyful routines fracture under the weight of unspoken guilt, the physical evidence of Tamsin's edits begins to surface. Told through a non-linear timeline of misfiled data sheets and sensory clues, the story follows Tamsin and Orion as they navigate the complexities of accountability, vulnerability, and friendship. Together, they must risk everything to repair the broken habitat and discover that true commitment means facing the unedited truth side-by-side.
