Devolution

by Amie McCracken

Human beings are on the verge of extinction. Animals, plants, and even bacteria adapt to an unstable environment, while humanity is losing the evolutionary race. Its only hope is science.

The World Health Organization creates the Modified Project - a program to design responsive, resilient humans able to survive the ever-changing elements.

Selah is a new world child, built to excel and evolve via genetic mutations. She is a success, exceeding expectations, but at what cost?

Alienated from her peers, separated from her parents, and unsure whether she is a child with a mind of her own or a medical experiment, Selah has questions.

Questions she keeps to herself until her scientist father goes missing after a heated dispute with the head of the WHO. Now she wants to know what, how, and who is at the heart of this mystery. Shaken to her core, she learns the secret is herself.
