She’s worked hard to build up her business and needs this mission from the Phoenix Corp. to make the final payment on her plane. When she takes off in inclement weather with a package to be dropped over Alaska, she has no idea her life as she knows it is over.

Carson Payne, a geneticist with the Northern Lights Genome Project (NLGP), is on the run. As a shifter, he feels that through science humans and shifters could find ways to work together in the future. But, after overhearing a conversation outside his lab, he realizes the company he works for has a different idea for the future. One where shifters rule.
