Book Description:

Mitch Rafelson, a discredited anthropologist, thinks he knows why thousands of pregnant women are giving birth to stillborn monsters. Kaye Lang, a biologist enlisted by the director of the NIH to investigate a new virulent retrovirus thought to be responsible, is starting to believe this disease may not be the killer the world thinks it is. Together Mitch and Kay race to find an answer only to get caught up on the wrong side of a divisive political struggle.
