On a still night at Seneca Lake, a student and his professor hear the thunderous “Lake Gun” and glimpse a ghostly, rootless tree drifting against wind and current. Local lore says it’s a cursed demagogue, doomed to wander for mocking sacred law. As science hunts causes and story hunts truth, a parable of ambition, superstition, and the uneasy bargain between democracy and nature unfolds.
