Nurse Ivy Domberg, along with the rest of the world, watched as the Magellan spacecraft launched into space for a top-secret mission to the moon. She would miss her husband while he was gone, but he'd be back before she knew it.No one expected those two short weeks to turn into years.The day the spaceship disappeared, Earth was hit with a blinding light, and life hasn't been the same since. Every female is now sterile, human and creatures alike. Insects, reptiles, fish, and birds are becoming extinct. Same for all animals as none of them are able to reproduce. Meat, eggs, and milk, as well as grain and vegetable crops, are growing scarce. It's only a matter of time before the world's population is completely wiped from the face of the Earth, either from starvation, old age, or both.During this time, Ivy refused to believe her astronaut husband Skeet was dead. But when the Magellan inexplicably returns with its crew somehow alive, is it a coincidence alien ships are spotted on the same day? Were the aliens responsible for their disappearance, as well as the chaos on Earth?Even as a possible interstellar war looms on the horizon, Ivy's nurse instincts kick in when she discovers a lone creature lying near a road. A creature not from Earth. A creature who appears to have just given birth. Seeing the infant, Ivy can't ignore the alien's plight, no matter the species. Regardless of the devastation they may have brought to the planet, a mother's love for her baby is universal.And it just might save the world.
