Clarissa Hammond

The first book following the first installation of Jurrasic Park.

Clarissa Hammond is the youngest daughter of John Hammond. Clarissa is a paleontologist alongside Dr. Alan Grant and is good friends with Ellie Sattler. Being almost thirty-one years old and adopted by the CEO of InGen and Jurrasic Park at ten years old, Clarissa believes that she is old enough to decide for herself. Clarissa is amazed at what her adopted father has created but is frightened by the outcome. These creatures were created and destroyed by God for a reason, who knows what chaos will happen when the said creatures decide it is time for them to make their lives in a new world.

Wanting Alan Grant's opinion about the park, Hammond brings a few select individuals to witness everything he's created. What Hammond didn't count on was that Ian Malcolm would become interested in his adopted daughter. Will he successfully keep Clarissa out of reach of Ian Malcolm and for his park to open without complications? Or will Ian get his Mrs. Ex-Malcolm and the park falls to ruin?

"Clary, my dear daughter!"

"I'm always looking for a Mrs. Ex-Malcolm."

"I'm not marrying you, just to become divorced. It's the long road or no road Ian."

"So...Mrs. Ex-Malcolm?"

"Ha! You're not divorcing me, buddy. It's going to take you being eaten for me to become Mrs. Ex-Malcolm."

"I love you, Clary. My future Mrs. Ex-Malcolm."

"I love you too, Ian. This will be a nice joke for the grandkids."
