Longing for another child, Stacey is recruited by LifeBLOOD®, a company that offers massive incentives for her to join an experimental genetics program. As part of the agreement, Stacey and her husband’s embryo will be blended with edited cells. Just how edited, Stacey doesn’t really know. Nor does she have any idea how much her longed-for new daughter will change her life and that of her family. Or how hard she will have to fight to protect her.

Frightening, believable, yet filled with hope and tenderness." PEGGY FREW, author of the critically acclaimed Islands©2020 Donna Mazza (P)2019 W. F. Howes Ltd
