Publisher Marketing: Jake Farrow is a handsome yet conflicted computer programmer haunted by his past after finding a memorable house in the rural Virginia mountains. The house is familiar but he doesn't know why. Jake photographs an angelic, nude male child standing on the front porch, leading him down a twisted path to discovering his past and his purpose for existing. The course of his life is changed forever. Through decrypted telephone calls and the purchase of the mystery house, he begins peeling back the layers of time and lost memories to reveal his childhood and the future world in which he is destined to live. He meets Mark, the son of the contractor restoring his house. Jake believes Mark to be his soul mate but Mark's Mennonite upbringing complicates matters, leading to emotionally gut wrenching decisions. Jake finds his birth mother in the most unexpected place, leading him to discovering the bazaar truth about whom he really is and that he bears the daunting task of saving the human race of the future from total annihilation. The Earth has lain fallow for more than one hundred years. The future world he finds is hostile and untamed. Natural disasters, animal attacks and battles with the Anarchist Alliance challenge Jake's survival skills but they also direct him into the arms of Allane, the other love of his life. Life is hard for the future settlers, making the fruits of love even sweeter and more precious.
