In the fractured remains of North America, young bioscientist Kiley Van is hunted by the Elect, a theocratic regime bent on exploiting the Earth in defiance of the changing climate that has unraveled civilization and devastated the natural world.
On the run and desperate to understand why she has been targeted, Kiley uncovers a buried family legacy—a biotechnology so powerful it could remake the world, for good or ill.
Finding refuge with the Dax people, an Earth-revering community, Kiley awakens to the Earth as a living entity—and to ancient knowledge that science has yet to divine.
Confronted with decisions of life and death, both personal and global, Kiley reluctantly becomes the face of resistance. But as the Elect close in, she faces an impossible choice—one that goes against everything the Dax have awakened in her, and whose consequences will determine the future of all living things.
