Produktbeschreibung
Lauren Beckwith, scientist and oncologist, works tirelessly to identify corporations responsible for industrial pollution. When pollution shows up in the pristine Colorado wilderness where she lives, her friends challenge her to do something more than merely identify it. With her judgment and professional ethics questioned, Lauren ponders her life choices and her role in preserving the fragile ecosystem. Alexandra Aoeron Aonwyn, Queen of Fuar ¿ala, is dealing with the aftereffects of a heinous bioweapon released on her world that causes the children to contract a mysterious disease and die. If Alex is not able to find a cure, her people are doomed to extinction after the current generation. When a winter field trip, a raging blizzard, and a grievous injury bring Lauren and Alex together, both are puzzled by their growing connection. Will they develop a soulmates' bond strong enough to create a much-needed quantum convergence? Or will they perish alone in the wilderness?
