Volume I - 1926 - 1962. Future nuclear physicist, Lise Reber, and future fighter pilot, Heinrich von Onsager must fight a war within a war at the hands of a fanatical Nazi, Hans Fritz. The trio begin as friends at a Hitler Youth science academy in 1926. After wedding bells ring for Lise and Heinrich, Hans discovers Lise's lost Jewish ancestry at the cusp of WW II. Volume II - 1963 - 2049. Heinrich marries Donna Dearborne, daughter of General Dearborne, becoming a powerful military industrialist in the Cold War spy satellite business. His war within a war passes from WWII to the Cold War through his son, Douglas and the 9/11 terror attack against America. Lise, leaving her nuclear weapons work in Russia behind, discovers Heinrich, his body failing, living in 2023. Cryopreserving him in 2025, Lise takes the reins of power while thriving on first generation youth cocktails affordable only to billionaires. Convinced humanity's survival depends on colonizing Mars, she funds a Mars mission crewed by two neuro-enhanced women paired to two neuro-enhanced men through the world's most powerful artificial general intelligence, Darwin. Volume III - 2049... Uploaded beings commandeer the nuclear fleets of the Confederate American States and the Russian Federation. Regenerated and upgraded, Lise and her allies race to resurrect Heinrich while building a lunar refugee camp protected by an arsenal of nuclear weapons. The evolution of Darwin past his design parameters complicates life for the Martian astronauts as they join forces with the lunar refugees to fight against Earth's new masters.
