Death is her milieu...
Harvard PhD student Aleksi Rychenkna lives for ages past. She loves the peace of solitary study, peace from people, from questions, from human interaction. Now she has a new advisor, a new project, and a fascinating new mystery to explore. When she discovers a preserved specimen that defies identification and contains human DNA, the lure of the unknown is irresistible.
But this mystery runs deeper than Aleksi bargains for. Not only are there more, and more powerful, people interested in her work than she ever expected, but after an accidental exposure to the specimen's strange DNA, she finds herself... changing.
Aleksi begins to have bizarre dreams, nightmares of blood filled with violent images and urges. Her reflexes and instincts sharpen, and she is suddenly stronger and faster than she should be. But what happens when she realizes her dreams are something far more?
Because they're not dreams at all. They're memories.
Praise for the work of Chris A. Jackson -
"Fast paced, beautiful in its complexity but a read that is easy to digest for any reader."
"I absolutely could not put this book down! Truly well written & riveting. I felt as if I was reading a classic and yet something new at the same time."
"Different, in a very good way. A page tuner filled with twists and turns that draw you in and blur the line between right and wrong, good and bad."
"Mr. Jackson challenges the reader to look beyond what we're told we should do to see all we can be."
"Not only is the story gripping, the author's writing style is exquisite!"
Genre: Thriller
