A young book editor stumbles up from the site of a bombing in the London subway. He accepts a woman's offer of help and a hot cup of tea. He's never heard from again... A group of boys in upstate New York goes sledding. One doesn't come home... A military convoy approaches a lone figure on a dusty road north of Baghdad. The woman is Army Chaplain Jaime Richards… and it seems she's been gone a lifetime… After two years in paradise, Jaime has chosen to return to the "terris" world as a dual citizen, an Agent of Eden. But soon she will discover that life among mere mortals has become a living hell and that the series of mysterious kidnappings are fatefully and tragically connected. For the victims are all descendants of Eden, and they have the one thing people outside of paradise want: a way to live forever.
