Morality, mortality, and power collide in a fight for the future of mankind.
In a world edging into dangerous advancements, Reconnaissance Assassin Y (R.A.Y.) is the first genetically pure human in over two thousand years. Created by a corrupt government faction driven by greed, Ray escapes her captors at eleven years old, for the entrusted hands of a medical genius. His mission: protect her from those who seek to reclaim their most dangerous creation. But even he can't foresee the consequences of playing God.
Without an equal, Ray craves a trusted ally. But like the government operatives who designed her, Ray quickly realizes the reins of creation are not easily held.
Christian Cromwell, a man whose body has been unnaturally preserved, awakens to a living nightmare-his family, believing him dead, will stop at nothing to bring him back. But they don't know the dark truth behind his resurrection or the devastation it threatens to unleash.
With her guardian gone and the government's ruthless retriever, Cage, closing in, Ray must rely on her half-brother, Nick, to choose an alliance that determines both their fates.
Lured by tragedy, a journalist becomes the Cromwell family's unlikely accomplice. To reveal the twisted miracle of Christian's existence they'll enter a pulse pounding race for survival and face an unspeakable evil in a world where the boundary between life and death has been redrawn.
As old wounds resurface and buried betrayals come to light, the stakes are no longer just about survival-they're about the soul of humanity. Can Ray escape the hands of her creators, or is the world's fate at greater risk if she joins forces?
