Mountain View, California, 2051. Relentless pollution and climate change have doomed the planet, the only way to save mankind is to move as many people as possible to newly discovered exoplanet Kepler 457 - popularly known as Earth 2.0, the "the second Garden of Eden". Julie, a brilliant Stanford student, wants to go, Daniel, her teacher (and lover) doesn't. He tries to warn her of the danger of the decapitation technology the Earth 2.0 project relies on: To move a mass of people efficiently, the bodies are left behind, only the severed heads are transported, tightly packed in spaceships. Upon arrival on Earth 2.0, the heads are fitted onto new genetically engineered cloned bodies. Will Julie listen to Daniel? Can mankind be saved by the Earth 2.0 project?

Aliens have been here before... one was left behind. Eighteen-year- old Zoe must find him and she doesn't have much time. Along with the alien, a beacon was left on Earth which when activated, opens a portal through which the aliens will return. The extraterrestrials visit Earth to usurp Qi, Earth's vital energy. If the extraterrestrials go too long without Qi, people on the alien planet will die. However, when Qi is extracted from Earth, the weak and elderly of Earth will die. The beacon can only be activated by the alien who was left here and only when the planets are in a particular alignment. The next time is only two months away during the Autumnal Equinox. When Zoe discovers who the alien is, it's a complete game changer because the alien is closer to her than she ever could have imagined. The story takes place in a small town surrounded by forest near the Oregon-California border. Of course it does, after all, the highest concentration of Qi is found in forests where ancient redwoods grow. You might be wondering, what is Qi? In Japan it is called "ki," and in India, "prana"." The ancient Egyptians referred to it as "ka," and the ancient Greeks as "pneuma." In Africa, it's known as "ashe" and in Hawaii as "mana." Qi, Prana, Ki, call it what you will, this energy is the life force itself.
