At least she thought she did, until her test shows an unheard-of 98 percent compatibility with another subject in the database: GeneticAlly’s founder, Dr. River Peña.

Jess—who is barely making ends meet—is in no position to turn it down, despite her skepticism about the project and her dislike for River.
