When they find technology that could wipe out what is left of the world to make room for the Primate's believers, they each must decide what they are willing to sacrifice to keep their friends safe. Even if that sacrifice means losing each other.

But the price Larry offers, her freedom more than a year early, is too enticing to ignore.
