Note: The Kindle option is unavailable for this book in NetGalley.
What if a stray virus accidentally killed all the men on earth?
Athena Vosh lives just like any other teenager from the year 2099. She watches reality shows with her friends, eats well, and occasionally wonders to herself: what would life be like if men were still alive?
It has been almost fifty years since men died, but a controversial project is currently underway to bring them back. There's just one problem. Someone has sabotaged it.
As Athena finds herself swept up in the hunt for the saboteur, she must race against the clock to uncover the hidden meaning behind a set of mysterious clues, and come face-to-face with a pair of harsh truths about happiness and gender -- truths which will lead her to the choice that will define her life forever.
