Met-Chron Sanctuary (Metamorphosis Chronicles Book 1)

Astra, a head-turning, Brazilian girl in her mid-twenties is not only beautiful but also brilliant…and in big trouble! After discovering a key to the genetic aging clock that could dramatically increase the human lifespan, she is tracked down by a psychic who delivers a stern warning that she must work to heal the planet before adding to the over population crisis by allowing a select few to live longer lives.

In the year 2029, the terminal impacts of global warming are having disastrous effects on ecosystems and global tensions have escalated as countries fight to extract the last barrel of oil. Astra’s new mission is to assemble cryogenic repositories (‘Arks’) of frozen plant and animal embryos to preserve them for the future. However, she is opposed by a fanatical religious group that will do anything to stop her. But is it the Ark that they really want…or something hidden within? Either way, they will have to go to a mining base on the moon to find out.
