Anastasia Nikolaeva

Some secrets are better left at the bottom of the ocean. Once she's in your house, there is no escape. When a struggling artist pulls a beautiful, unconscious woman from the freezing coastal waters, he thinks he’s performed a miracle. But as she recovers within the walls of his secluded home, a series of unsettling events leads him to a terrifying realization: her presence is no coincidence. She is inextricably linked to the same watery grave that claimed his family years ago.

A true story, set in the future. About seeds and genetic diversity, about growth and decay, about love and war, about hunger of all kinds. About what it means to be human, even when all your humanity is stripped away.
