Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Imagine everything you thought you knew about human progress was wrong. What would you do?

Mia is not sure what she is, but she isn't human. Smarter, stronger than her peers, all she knows are the rules: there can never be three for too long; always run, never fight. 

When she finds herself in Germany 1945, she must turn the Nazis' most trusted scientist with an offer: abandon the crumbling Nazi party, escape Germany with your life, come to work for the Americans building rockets. 

But someone is watching her work. An enemy who's smarter, stronger, decidedly not human and prepared to do anything to retrieve something ancient that was long lost. 

If only she had any idea what it was....

Wow! Finest audio book I have listened to to date!

This book kept me enthralled!

Audible production was amazing with each character being a different actor that brought the story to life. If you have not listened to this and want a great sci fi story based in science and history. This is the one for you. I knew nothing of the author and picked up on a whim.

Exceptional on every level from story to the actors who told this.

Get it now!
