Action in Book Two starts right where Book One stops: Electra standing in NASA Mission Control, watching the first manned flight to Mars blast off! But its success gives Electra too much to do. She develops a stress-related medical issue that she keeps hidden.
The most pressure-packed new project, Climate Change, takes her to Australia for exploring the Great Barrier Reef, to Africa's Danakil Depression (the hottest place on the planet) in search of new forms of life, and to mid-America for chasing storms. Danger awaits in all these locations as well as all places every project takes her. Only Electra's wits and Indira the Singularity can keep her safe.
Events in her Clone Children's personal worlds add pressure too. Electra must help them find new careers. And the unpredictable Washington storms sweep Electra into multiple battles giving her new adversaries and ultimately leading to Presidential Assassination and Government Takeover. Indira's iconic command ends this novel:
"Electra needs your help. Place her carefully on the carpet, then settle down, sit still, and listen to me..."
