Four hundred years into the future, Clara, the Secretary, faces a dilemma: humanity is facing extinction, and our only hope is alien technology, but it comes at a price. Fracony, a super-civilization that visited Earth in the past, built models showing that this apocalypse, triggered by human virus experiments, was inevitable. Are Fracony’s models right? The only human who can communicate with Fracony is Clara. Her qualities were detected when she was only a few months old, and she has trained all her life to take on the challenge of leading the world. But training could not foresee everything. There are too many moving parts, and the Fracony have their plans. Clara must take drastic action to contain the virus. But will she make the right choice?
