Not even the immune human-hybrids will be safe this time.
One woman with a cure will have to decide who deserves to live.
In a dark future, the Sanctuary of Americas has been running genetic experiments on humans with animal DNA to stop a deadly virus which took humanity to the brink of extinction. The result is the Chimera, a hybrid human species which are immune to the virus.
The Sanctuary is using the Chimera’s DNA to find a cure for humans, but the Chimeras want their freedom and are fighting for a place in a new world order still run by the Pure humans.
When the FossilFlu virus mutates, any hope of immunity is gone for both human and hybrid alike. As it spreads, everyone and everything must fight to survive. The cure to the virus is the key to power and the future face of humanity.
One woman, Doctor Mercy Perching, may hold the cure to the new virus, but whose side is she on?
Reviews:
‘A brisk SF novel with a richly described setting…the vivid atmosphere is the book’s greatest asset and should please SF fans.’ Kirkus
‘Weisbeck's story is sensational, offering suspense and wonder. The story is extremely well-written and creative. We have shapeshifters, werewolves, vampires, but have you really ever heard of avian hybrids or scorpion hybrids?’ Lauren Jones, ReedsyDiscovery, 5 Stars
