Summary:
When a shipping container washes ashore on an island between our world and the next, John the Collector finds a young woman inside -- broken, frozen, and barely alive. With the aid of Healers and Scholars, John oversees her recovery and soon discovers her genetic code connects her to every known human race. She is a girl of prophecy and no one can guess what her survival will mean. No one but Eve, Mother of the Living, who calls her "daughter," and invites her to witness the truth about her story -- indeed, the truth about us all
