Synopsis

The year is 2021. For 25 years no child has been born. Nor will there be any more children, for infertility has spread like the plague and the human race is facing extinction. Amidst the riots and the horrors a group of dissenters face the choices that may change the future of humankind.

Media Reviews
A book of such accelerating tension that the pages seem to turn faster as one moves along. -- Chicago Tribune
As scary and suspenseful as anything in Hitchcock. -- The New Yorker
Extraordinary. . . . Daring. . . . Frightening in its implications. -- The New York Times
Fascinating, suspenseful, and morally provocative. The characterizations are sharply etched and the narrative is compelling. -- Chicago Sun-Times
Extraordinary ... daring ... frightening in its implications.
-- The New York Times
She writes like an angel. Every character is closely drawn. Her atmosphere is unerringly, chillingly convincing. And she manages all this without for a moment slowing down the drive and tension of an exciting mystery.
-- The Times (UK)
