Publisher's Synopsis
Every night, Jade is rattled by a recurring dream-a dream that's as real as the research institute where she lives. When flames fall from the sky and an alien ship crashes into Earth, Jade becomes government property and at the mercy of scientists. After all, she's imprinted with an intelligent alien metal that could be the answer to all of Earth's problems. However, in the wrong hands, the metal implant could become the deadliest weapon known to humankind. Kept underground for sixteen years, Jade fights to keep her sanity and understand the intelligent organism that is wrapped around her spine. When a new company takes over the science institute, Jade's alien symbiont warns her of imminent danger. Then Jade meets Aric, the lone survivor from the spaceship. They form an alliance that will change their personal destiny and they put a plan into motion that will alter the future of mankind.
