Carnac's Folly, Volume 2.

After a long winter’s exile, Carnac returns to Montreal in the bright bloom of spring, only to find his world tangled in unfinished business. His mother’s worries about a missing sister and a fraught romance with Luzanne surface alongside the looming threat of a looming divorce that could tarnish his reputation. Meanwhile, his estranged father, John Grier, confronts him with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion, probing whether Carnac’s artistic pursuits have brought any profit.

Caught between family expectations, a rival’s encroaching influence, and the tangled loyalties of those around him, Carnac must decide what truly matters—whether to chase wealth, secure a modest home, or honor the complicated ties that bind him. The opening chapters set a vivid stage of personal conflict and societal pressures, inviting listeners to follow Carnac’s uneasy navigation of love, ambition, and the shadows of his past.
