Monarch - First Migration

By Kat Drennan

A genetic experiment gone horribly wrong. An unthinkable emergence in a distant future. Can a terrified young woman find the strength to save a new generation?

Lara 's heart races with fear and dread, sensitive antennae stretch atop her smooth head, the remains of a chrysalis are strewn at her feet. Covered in feathery scales and not quite human, she is alone on a granite precipice. A vast, inland sea sparkles across the land where the San Joaquin Valley used to grow food for a nation. A deep scar across the lifeline in her palm throbs with her last memory: destroying the UV serum that took the life of her fianc , and the eyes of the madman who took him. Then a young woman appears claiming Lara is the last hope of her people to lead their new hybrid generation on a journey of discovery and survival.

What has happened to Michael? Who are these people? How will she survive alone in this unfamiliar place?

Then a quickening in her belly slices cold through her soul: she will not be alone for long.
