Gods of the New Age · Book One · Second Edition
The boy wants to be loved.
That is what makes him dangerous.
Dr. Evelyn Hart knows her newborn daughter's every movement. When Nunnally's body begins to change, Evelyn needs answers her husband will not give.
Beneath Virginia, a secret weapons program is failing. Colonel Marcus Hart takes three drops of blood from his sleeping daughter. By morning, a boy stands inside the containment glass.
He learns kindness from a young technician. He learns the comfort of a promised return. Around him, frightened people begin to feel safe—and leaving becomes harder than staying.
As Evelyn follows the connection between her daughter and the boy, the people charged with containing him begin planning how to reproduce him. Saving her family means entering a place where even the desire to help can become part of the trap.
Literary science-fiction horror about family, bodily autonomy, and the terrible cost of belonging.
