When a fire at Docenti Labs sent everyone running, Ingrid Shyne was told to wipe the computers and leave, but she couldnโt leave the babies behind. How could anyone? She escapes with them, hiding out at her parentsโ place, but she knows she canโt keep the infants forever. Theyโre Chimeras, created in a lab like the other โchildrenโ who escaped, and they need to be with those who understand them. When she reaches out, sheโs welcomed with open arms, especially by one in particular.
Ingrid canโt wait to share all the firsts with G8โfirst love, first changing of the seasons, first holiday season, first birthday celebration. It breaks her heart that he and his family have been deprived of the joys in life sheโd always taken for granted. But all of this could be taken away before they ever get a chance to experience any of it.ย
The sheriff soon calls G8 up to begin work in his new deputy position and aid them in investigating the abandoned labs, along with the help of Ingrid since she worked there. But they soon realize their lives are at risk. For good reason. Theyโll need everyoneโs special abilities, along with local law enforcement, to protect themselves as well as the second generation of Chimeras.
