She might be right. An atomic disaster in Germany has contaminated Northern Europe with radioactivity. Economic and political calamities are destroying the whole planet. Human DNA is mutating, plant species are going extinct, and scientists are feverishly working on possible solutions. It becomes increasingly apparent that the key to future salvation lies in the past. In 2052 a secret research facility in the Vatican is recruiting scientists for a mission to restore the flora of the irradiated territories. The institute claims to have time travel. When Domenica's sometime-lover tells her that he knows her future but that she must decide her own fate, she enlists despite his ambiguous warning. The Middle Ages hold Domenica spellbound. She immerses herself in the mysteries, puzzles, and peculiarities of a culture foreign to her, though she risks changing the past with effects far more disastrous than radiation poisoning. Perhaps there is more than one Domenica, and more than one catastrophe"-- 7aFICTION / Science Fiction / General.2bisacsh 7aScience fiction.2gsafd423Cover imageuhttp://www.netread.com/jcusers2/bk1388/081/9780765319081/image/lgcover.9780765319081.jpg  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  2lcccBK  c27664d27664  00102lcc40708FICaPUEAbPUEAcGENd2014-12-10eBooks For Africag4800.00l0oPT 2670 .E75 C87 2013p2014-7837r2015-08-01 00:00:00tc1w2014-12-10yBK
