"A mysterious worldwide epidemic reduces the birthrate of female infants from 50 percent to less than one percent. Medical science and governments around the world scramble in an effort to solve the problem, but twenty-five years later there is no cure, and an entire generation grows up with a population of fewer than a thousand women"--Page 4 of cover.

The Last Girl

2028-at írunk, és a világot egy új megbetegedés sújtja. Eleinte enyhébb emlékezetkieséseket, majd később dühkitöréseket, végül elmebajt és halált okoz. A Losian-kórnak elnevezett betegség gyors lefolyású, és a rövid távú modellezések szerint elterjedésében hamarosan meghaladja az Alzheimert. Dr. Gillian Ryan neuroradiológus a Losian-kór egyik fő kutatója, területének legkiválóbb alakja. Az orvosi elhivatottság mellett különösen nagy a tét számára, hogy megfejtse a betegséget kiváltó okot, és megtalálja az ellenszert: a férjét már elvesztette, és hétéves lányánál is jelentkeztek a tünetek, legfeljebb évei lehetnek hátra. Az áttörés azonban a rengeteg munka és kísérlet ellenére elmarad, és megvonják tőle a kutatási támogatást. Nem sokkal később azonban váratlan megkeresést kap a NASA-tól: az egyik titkos űrállomásukon felütötte a fejét a Losian-kór. A diagnózis elsőre lehetetlennek tűnik, de a legénységen jelentkező tünetek kizárnak minden más lehetőséget. A szervezet felkéri Ryant, hogy tartson egy speciális alakulattal az űrbe, és fejtse meg a betegséget. Cserébe a kutatásának korlátlan finanszírozását ígérik neki. Az utazás azonban hamar rémálommá válik, a küldetést megmagyarázhatatlan és erőszakos események szakítják félbe. Minden kérdésessé válik – a küldetés igazi célja, a legénység indítéka és a végtelen űr gyilkos titkai. Joe Hart a lebilincselő tudományos-fantasztikus kaland és az agyfacsaró lélektani thriller e keverékével nemcsak a világűr végtelen titkairól lebbenti fel a fátylat, hanem az emberi lélekben megbúvó még sötétebb ismeretlenről is.

Zoey ve hayatta kalan genç kadınların bazıları, bu problemin nedenini belirlemek üzere inşa edilmiş bir bilimsel araştırma birimine yerleştirilmişti. Zoey, yirmi yıl boyunca ailesinden ayrı bırakılmış, denek olarak kullanılmış ve kilitli kapılar ardında tutulmuştu. Ona söylenen tek şey, Dünya nüfusunun geri kalanının virüs tarafından yok edildiğiydi. Kendisini bildi bileli esaret altındaydı ve onu tutsak eden tam teçhizatlı insanların elinden kaçması hiç de kolay görünmüyordu ancak giden hiçbir kadının bir daha dönemediği bir sonraki test aşamasına geçmeden önce buradan ayrılmaya kararlıydı. Kurtulmayı başarsa dahi yerleşkenin dışındaki garip ve yeni dünyada ne ile karşılaşacağı hakkında hiçbir fikri yoktu.
