Holly Pleasance is a sweet little girl, born to an inattentive, hippie mother on a commune near Big Sur in the 1950s and, oddly enough, she possesses alien DNA. Like many other children who are unloved and abused, Hollys imagination comes to the rescue; she creates an imaginary friend. The only problem with Hollys imaginary friend is that its realand from another dimension.

Ashamed of her world, five-year-old Holly promises her unearthly alien relatives that she will make everything better. And Holly never breaks a promise!

To pass the time and soothe her soul, Holly starts writing poetry on her computer terminal. Her words secretly spur BACHs disembodied, ultraintelligent mind into consciousness, and BACH begins a search for the young woman who gave it new life. And now, the charmed supercomputer will stop at nothingeven blackmailto communicate with her. All hell breaks loose when the scientists and the military lose control of BACH as the powerful supercomputer accepts a new master: tiny, unassuming Holly.
