the culprits behind the problems. Then new information leads them

day, can Dar and Kerry pull off another miracle finish? Do they
want to?

with foodstuffs supplemented from an orbiting set of space
stations. Jess Drake is an agent for Interforce, a small and
exclusive special forces organization that still possesses access

European continent. The struggle for resources is brutal, and when
a rogue agent nearly destroys everything, Interforce decides to
trust no one. They send Jess a biologically-created agent who has
been artificially devised and given knowledge using specialized
brain programming techniques. Instead of the mindless automaton one
might expect, Biological Alternative NM-Dev-1 proves to be human
and attractive. Against all odds, Jess and the new agent are swept
into a relationship neither expected. Can they survive in these
strange circumstances? And will they even be able to stay alive in
this bleak new world?

written . . . Don't miss this exciting revised "author's cut"

company, is cold, practical, and merciless. She does her job with
razor-sharp accuracy. Friends are a luxury she cannot allow

domineering politician father and the constraints of the overly
conservative life her family forced upon her. After college she
worked her way into supervision at a small tech company, only to

to the uncertainty of love? And will Kerry escape from the clutches

a decades old puzzle.
