How far would you go to save the human race?
In 2017 a virus sweeps across the world and infects every living person. It lies dormant until a woman gives birth. Then she dies.
Fifteen years later, nobody has survived childbirth since the outbreak began. Teenage wheelchair athlete, Antimone Lessing, discovers she is pregnant. She has no recollection of events leading up to the conception. When she unexpectedly gives birth and lives, she becomes a vital clue in the race to develop a cure before the global population declines beyond the point of no return.
