Humanity clings to existence on a drowning world. The Antarctic ice has melted, swallowing continents beneath endless water, and mankind itself withers with each generation of cloning. Genetic degradation accelerates as the remnants of civilization scavenge the last resources from a dying planet. A small group of survivors discovers they can sustain themselves by hunting down others who carry something precious: genetic material untainted by generations of artificial reproduction. These rare individuals become targets, their bodies the only remaining source of what humans need to survive. A young man carrying this invaluable genetic legacy becomes hunted. Pursued across vast oceans by those desperate enough to kill for his existence, he navigates a world where survival means someone else's extinction. Every encounter forces a choice between running and fighting, between preserving humanity's future and accepting its collapse. Vie Durant captures humanity's final chapter, where the line between salvation and damnation blurs completely. It asks what survives when everything worth living for has already been lost.
