Are rapidly escalating natural disasters the planet's way of shedding her deadly human parasites? After all, you don't get to be 4 billion years old without knowing how to look after yourself. In the latest cataclysm a blinded, crushed and dying baby girl is buried. Three days later, refurbished but hideous, she rises. But how? And more to the point, why? Environmentalists seek her, wanting to know her, hoping she has answers. Fearing this nonsense may tip the environmental debate, industrialists also seek her, wanting to destroy her. And of course there are those who hunt her for the sheer joy of the chase. This novel features three competing women, one from each of these camps. They have courage, guns and intelligence, and they will need all of these if they are to overcome the dangers, violence and misogyny coming their way. Charismatic male counterparts will also provide strong competition, but this rivalry will be inconveniently spiked by mutual attraction. Petal Ling Fitzgerald is young, and newly married to a septuagenarian American who is the richest man on earth (but don't judge her, not without knowing more). She falls for a handsome English charmer whom she knows to be an untrustworthy chancer: a bad idea at any time, but exponentially worse when your powerful husband is viciously jealous.Next is Donna Maxwell, British top executive in the global consortium of industrialists, who finds herself in love and in competition with the celebrated American leader of the worldwide Green Movement. And then there is Texan Jennifer Crocket, the internationally famous big game hunter. She is flung together with a tough U.S. navy captain, a strict vegan who is smitten by her beauty but utterly despises both her and her trade. Can such star crossed lovers ever be sweethearts? It's a no-brainer. Of course they can't. And they know it. Of course they do...And facing them all is the creature. Not only mysterious and elusive, but a prey who proves to be an excellent hunter. But why is she here? Will she help to avert apocalypse or has she been sent to speed it along? While learning the answers to these questions you will witness heinous crimes and rugged responses, and you will face violence and terrible danger. There will be romance and some smiles on the way, sure, but after this thrilling adventure your view of the world may never be quite the same again
