It's the year 2098: diseases have been cured and people have been raised from the dead. Dr Ira Levinsten, genius geneticist, has created a new chemical injection to make humans immortal. Astrid Grace Morningstar, one of Hollywood's megastars, sees the injection as a way to keep her looking young and beautiful forever. Dr Levinsten hasn't tested this treatment on humans yet; he was thrilled that Astrid wanted to be one of the first to obtain this new treatment. Astrid's parents don't trust this unknown world. When they heard that their daughter would become the first immortal, they feared the worst. They tried to stop Astrid but discover she has already had the injection. Soon after, Dr Levinsten himself mysteriously vanishes along with his treatment. Astrid finds herself the only living immortal in a word of mortals. Instead of making her even more rich and famous, she finds that being immortal is immensely difficult. Ultimately, she is forced to go into hiding, as there are many that want her dead; some through jealousy and others wanting the treatment for themselves. Her close relationships fall apart. Her career collapses, and she becomes the most hunted woman on earth. In the end, she takes her own life.

Ava James thinks she's human, but finds out she's not... and in more danger, than she ever could have realized. Her days just got a whole lot busier. "You need to learn to protect yourself. You need to know the dangers of what you are, but also the strength of who you are." All set in year 3000. Once Unified Now In Shadows.
