Confined to a small, shuttered apartment her entire life, twelve year old Aniweta has never known the outside world. She has never experienced sun, air, trees, or rain. She is a chimera, part human, part ape, a humanzee bred in a secretive lab as part of an organ transplant study.

To maintain Ani's health, she has been provided a live-in caretaker, Beth Diekman, who Ani has come to regard as her sister. But as the study moves toward its conclusion, Beth's bond with the strange and trusting creature causes her to question the ethics of the study's plans. She is faced with a choice. Attempt to free Ani and destroy the years of research or to allow her sister to be sacrificed in the name of human progress.

Aniweta is a Swahili name that means a spirit brought it. It's a stunningly poetic thriller, gripping in pace, emotionally captivating, and scientifically literate. It's full of twists, unexpected turns, and character development. On another level, it explores questions of what it means to be human and of our shared connectedness to the natural world. Let it take you on a journey to the kindred spirit within us all.
