Opis

It's a decade after World War III, global factional politics, and the destruction of Earth's ozone layer threaten to be humanity's extinction event. The Earth is in an increasingly vulnerable position. Veteran politician, Thornton Manning has been elected Chief Executive of Earth. Most think he's a hero, but a loner. Tonight is February 27, 2068, and Earth's global representatives are scheduled to sign a vital Pact with Ambassador Shaesar from Nelta. Fearing a close relationship with the strange, super-powerful Neltan species, the rise of technophobic terrorists is coming, and they need to be met head-on before they can launch attacks on the massive spacecraft under construction for the voyage to Nelta. Before she was considered the world's leading Genomic scientist, before she was thought of as Thornton Manning's answer to this new type of warfare, and before she was both loved and hated by scientists around the globe, Dr. Elisa Holton was a young gifted researcher into both genetics and nano-technology at Duke University. Thornton Manning knows without a doubt, Elisa is the answer to his problems, but she could also expose his off-Earth illegal experimentation He has no choice. He recruits Elisa in exchange for the medical job of a lifetime onboard spaceship Sagan. When does helping someone - turn into hurting? As action packed, fast-paced, and brutally realistic as it gets, JPs latest page turner shows readers how Dr. Elisa Holton and her elite team of savvy geniuses are the only ones who can secure The Pact, and save Thornton Manning.
