Two young lives—anthropology students Nick Stern and Hannah Wren—meet in Israel in the summer of 1984 and fall in love amid the rigors and adventure of an archaeological dig in the country's highlands. They fend off a brutal attack in Tel Aviv, which reinforces their burgeoning romance, but when they return home, their now-entwined lives are torn apart by family secrets and cruel fate, setting them on separate paths for decades.

Over twenty years and across continents, Nick and Hannah navigate loss, betrayal, turbulent times, and the weight of their choices. In a saga that takes place in the wilds of Africa (Nick) and spans the American continent (Hannah), they each deal with danger, heartbreak and moral dilemmas that test their fortitude. Both thrive in unexpected careers while battling emotional setbacks that threaten to destroy them.

Soundscape is a sweeping romantic adventure, rich with archaeology, history, and personal discovery. Ultimately, it is a story of redemption, enduring love, and the extraordinary victories, losses and coincidences that offer these two lives a final, hard-won chance at happiness.
