Book description
In the hidden basement lab of a military research facility in
Needles, California, Eli Johnson jerks to consciousness. He is
strapped to a stretcher and remembers nothing until he hears a voice
he knows only as “The Tormentor.” That's when it all comes back: he
has been a prisoner in this lab for eight years. And he's about to die.
Abilene Miller, a newly minted doctor desperate to prove herself,
snaps up the opportunity to work at a military hospital, but the
reality of Needles proves to be vastly different from the pitch of the
two recruiters. She spends her days running labs and wishing for
things to be different.
When Abilene stumbles across Eli's body in a supply close, she
definitely gets different. She's shocked when the dead man
jerks back to life in her arms and infuriated when he kidnaps her. He
thinks she's part of a conspiracy; she thinks he's insane.
Only together can they find out the truth-and brave the risks they
run in loving each other.
