From her early aspirations of being an accomplished pianist to her current job as a meteorologist, Morgan has found that life-much like forecasting weather patterns and tuning harpsichords-is far from an exact science. When her father, the famed painter Jon Tallis, dies unexpectedly, Morgan pushes away her husband, Rob, and the growing chasm threatens their marriage. Can Morgan find solace as an accompanist for the opera Peter Grimes? And if not in the opera, can it be found in the leading man, Ford? With operatic flourishes, Cheryl Walsh's debut novel explores themes of isolation, trauma, infidelity, and the subtle ways parents alter the trajectory of their children's lives. Through the lens of art, music, and meteorology, Unequal Temperament examines how we navigate the storms of our lives. Will Morgan and Rob find their way home? And what is home anyway?
