The Nectar
An Earth without bees... A civilization on the edge of starvation... A hidden journal that might hold the key to humanity's survival. The year is 2031. Bees and other natural pollinators vanish, leaving a panicked population fighting for food and resources. Seventeen-year-old Keeley’s parents force her into the Army, believing the military will keep her safe and fed during the worsening crisis. She’s assigned to a government research installation where covert experiments are underway to alter the human genome. The year is 2180. Much of the world’s food crops are gone, along with the wildlife that was hunted to extinction. Migrant colonies crisscross the countryside, hand-pollinating the remaining crops in a desperate effort to keep the human race alive. It’s seventeen-year-old Hannah’s job to feed migrant workers the Nectar, a nutrient that allows them to survive without real food. Hannah is devoted to her duty, until she finds Keeley’s century-and-a-half-old journal and discovers the Nectar is far from the blessing she believes it to be. The information in the journal blows her world apart. But it might also hold the secret to saving mankind...
