Four Units

Anna is a talented reproductive specialist who devoted her life to helping people become parents in a world where natural conception is impossible. IVF is humanity’s last hope—but suddenly the world is on the brink of catastrophe: supposedly international negotiations turn into a show trial of scientists who can control the future of civilization.

Governments fear the influence of reproductive specialists and want to ban artificial insemination. Anna and her friends step onto the front line of the fight for the future: June, head of the World Health Organization; Juan and Ken—four of the best specialists of their time, four units against the face of humanity.

But the past won’t let Anna go: June was her first love, the one she ran from in fear and hid from for years. Now they meet again face-to-face after several years apart. Can they forget old grievances and unite to save humanity? Or will old wounds be too deep to prevent a global catastrophe?
