One in twenty million persons is born with a body whose T-cells and immune systems never fail. These members of the Order live for hundreds of years, each possessing a special skill (warrior, mathematics, animal communication, charm, etc.) Until now, no child has ever inherited a parent's longevity or ability. A roll of the genetic dice has made Nina, a thirteen-year-old orphan, the ultimate prize in human evolution. As the daughter of a deceased Order member, she too is a member, and thus represents the next level of human evolution. Competing factions of the Order will now struggle to control her destiny. On one side is Clarissa, the second, long forgotten daughter of Julius Caesar, who hopes to groom Nina as the messenger for revealing the Order to mainstream humanity. Opposing her is the Order's ruling council, which wants their privileged existence to remain a secret. As strange things begin to happen, and hints of her future abilities begin to emerge, Nina begins to suspect she is very different.
