Sam Rushworth was born into a family of brilliant scientists. A geneticist based in Canberra, she has inherited her parents’ intellect-and her mother’s weak heart. For years, Sam has searched for a cure, determined to overcome the condition that has haunted her family.But there is another mystery that has captured her attention.While convalescing, Sam and her mother began researching an unusual theory: that extra-terrestrials once lived on Earth and interbred with humans. What began as a fascinating hobby soon becomes something far more dangerous when Sam discovers that her research is wanted by forces from two other planets - Venus and Mars.When the mysterious Bryon arrives in her life, along with the strikingly blue-eyed Yasmin, Sam is unsure who she can trust. Her father’s warnings about scientists having their research stolen have made her wary of everyone-including the man who is becoming increasingly difficult to resist.Then a terrifying encounter forces Sam to flee Canberra to go to Bondi Beach to her parents’ place.On the brink of giving up on her life entirely, Sam is unexpectedly swept away to Venus, where she discovers a civilisation unlike anything she could have imagined. Here, women hold the power, while men like Bryon are valued for pleasure, companionship and reproduction.As Sam becomes involved in Venusian research, she finds herself caught between generations struggling over the planet’s future-and a growing conflict with Mars. Her relationship with Bryon deepens into something neither of them is supposed to have.But when an attack throws Venus into chaos and a dormant volcano awakens, Sam discovers that she is carrying twins.Suddenly, the scientist who came to Venus to help save a world has become the most important experiment of all.And with Bryon kidnapped and taken back to Earth, Sam must face a terrifying question:Can she save the man she loves, protect her unborn children, and uncover the truth before two worlds collide?
