The Dark Side of Science

By Julie C. Gilbert

Her lost memories are the key to their survival.

Under the direction of Dr. Dean Devya, Dr. Jessica Paladon genetically engineered a super soldier and one of the world's first Minders. But when dangerous training methods caused moral conflict, Jessie took an amnesia-inducing drug to leave the program for good.

The program now needs to prove relevance. The government wants solid proof that Devya's program produces powerful weapons, not costly failures.

Varick and Nadia, the children Jessie left behind, have been forced into a ruthless winner-takes-all military-style competition. If they lose, they will die with the program.

Jessie wants to help, but amnesia isn't easily reversed.

Suspicious of the memory loss, the government director in charge of evaluating Devya's program poisons one of her friends to force her hand.

With time running out, Jessie must piece together her shattered mind to save her friend, rescue her children, and survive the dark side of science.
