Summary
Meet Dr. Sandra Eve Bradford, an astrobiological researcher in charge of the A.D.A.M. extraction team, who discovered a microbe which thrives off of arsenic on the bottom of Mono Lake in California.
General Anbar, chief-in-charge of the US National Defense, orders his team to confiscate the samples and her research. Dr. Bradford enlists her fellow researchers Dr. Gregory Peterson and her undergraduate assistant Jessica Parker to retrieve a new sample setting off a series of events and consequences.
In a government research facility, the microbe transformed into something alien. Once it becomes apparent to General Anbar that the life-form presents a national security risk, he orders his men to kidnap Dr. Bradford and holds her captive in an underground facility to continue her research.
The life-form, over a seven-day stretch, morphs into a human-like life-form aging every moment toward death. His journey makes him question - What is life? What is love? What is hate? And, is there a God?
This a story of possibilities and raises the questions: Are we alone in the universe? What else could be out there?
