Science Fiction
*36:00:00* The clock activates so suddenly in my mind, my head
involuntarily jerks a bit to the side. The fog vanishes,
dissipated in an instant as though it never was. Memories
come slotting into place, their edges sharp enough to leave
furrows, and suddenly I know. I know exactly who I am. My name is Lia Johansen, and I was named for a prisoner of
war. She lived in the Tiersten Internment Colony for two
years, and when they negotiated the return of the prisoners,
I was given her memories and sent back in her place. And I am a genetically engineered human bomb. Lia Johansen was created for only one purpose: to slip onto
the strategically placed New Sol Space Station and explode.
But her mission goes to hell when her clock malfunctions,
freezing her countdown with just two minutes to go. With no
Plan B, no memories of her past, and no identity besides a
name stolen from a dead POW, Lia has no idea what to do
next. Her life gets even more complicated when she meets
Michael Sorenson, the real Lia’s childhood best friend. Drawn to Michael and his family against her better judgment,
Lia starts learning what it means to live and love, and to
be human. It is only when her countdown clock begins
sporadically losing time that she realizes even duds can
still blow up. If she wants any chance at a future, she
must find a way to unlock the secrets of her past and stop
her clock. But as Lia digs into her origins, she begins to
suspect there’s far more to her mission and to this war,
than meets the eye. With the fate of not just a space
station but an entire empire hanging in the balance, Lia
races to find the truth before her time—literally—runs out.
