COALESCENT
George
Poole isn't sure whether his life has reached a turning point or a dead
end. At forty-five, he is divorced and childless, with a careerthat is
going nowhere fast. Then, when his father dies suddenly, George stumbles
onto a family secret: a sister he never knew existed. A twin named
Rosa, raised in Rome by an enigmatic cult. Hoping to find the answers
tothe missing pieces of his life, George sets out for the ancient city.

Once
in Rome, he learns from Rosa the enthralling story of their distant
ancestor, Regina, an iron-willed genius determined topreserve her family
as the empire disintegrates around her. It was Regina who founded the
cult, which has mysteriously survived and prospered below the streets of
Rome for almost two millennia. The Order, says Rosa, is herreal family-
and, even if he doesn't realize it yet, it is George's family, too.
When she takes him into the vast underground city that is the Order's
secret home, he feels a strongsense of belonging, yet there is something
oddly disturbing about the women he meets. They are all so young and so
very much alike.

Now, joined by his boyhood friend Peter McLachlan,
who arrives in Romewith a dark secret of his own, George uncovers
evidence suggesting that the women of the Order have embarked on a
divergent evolutionary path. But they are not just a new kind of human.
They are a better kind, geneticallysuperior, equipped with all the tools
necessary to render homo sapiens as extinct as the Neanderthals. And,
chillingly, George and Peter soon have reason to fear that this colony
is preparing to leave its overcrowdedunderground nest. . . .
