One hundred and fifty years ago, global warming brought humankind to the edge of extinction. In a desperate bid for survival, four thousand genetically enhanced soldiers—the last slice of humanity—were sent to eight space stations.

As she desperately searches for her knot, Romy is found by a grey-eyed man—a mysterious and close-lipped presence she is not certain she can trust. Especially when he shouldn’t even exist. Secrets are unmasked. A different version of Earth bursts to the surface. Will Romy survive the betrayal and lies threatening to shatter her mind like glass? Earth was ruined. Humankind destroyed. Or so they were told. . . .
