"A compelling and thought-provoking thriller . . . this frighteningly plausible novel will keep you turning the pages all night long. A stunning debut." —Douglas Preston, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Impact
In 2027, destroying an embryo is considered first-degree murder. Fertility clinics still exist, giving hope and new life to thousands of infertile families, but they have to pass rigorous inspections by the United States Department of Embryo Preservation. Fail an inspection, and you will be prosecuted.
Brilliant young doctor Arianna Drake seems to be thriving in the spotlight: her small clinic surpasses every government requirement, and its popularity has spiked—a sudden, rapid growth that leaves the DEP chief mystified. When he discovers Arianna's radical past as a supporter of an infamous scientist, he sends undercover agent Trent Rowe to investigate her for possible illegal activity.
As Trent is pulled into Arianna's enigmatic world, his own begins to unravel. The secret he finally uncovers will deeply move him—and jeopardize them both. With the clock ticking her life away, he finds himself questioning everything he knows to be true, and then must summon the courage to take the greatest risk of all. Nothing less than human life—and a major scientific breakthrough—hang in the balance.
"Taut, energetic, and imaginative . . . A remarkable debut!" —Lisa Unger, New York Times–bestselling author of Fragile
"A terrific read—tightly woven and tense as a coiled snake." —Michael Palmer, New York Times–bestselling author of A Heartbeat Away
"Makes you think, makes you sweat, leaves you happy—everything a good book should." —Lee Child, New York Times–bestselling author of the Jack Reacher novels)
