Race For The Cure (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781967668762)

After it gruesomely devastated much of the world population in 1822-1824 and again in 1948, the Mercedes virus emerged again in 2042. To develop a vaccine, a fungal plant microbe, which had become extinct in the 1980s, had to be recovered.

To recover a sample of the microbe, Dr. Amanda Kane, a physicist with a background in quantum physics and the Time/Space Project, and Dr. Amaqjuaq Kannak, a microbiologist specializing in virology, became fellow time travelers, traveling back in time to 1978.

Their project became an unexpected adventure, taking them to Nunivak Island in Alaska to Gudalupe Island west of Mexico's Baja California Peninsula, and to Utqiagvik, the upper-most populated community in the United States and home to the Inupiaq Inuit ethnic group indigenous to Alaska.

Amanda and Amaqjuaq (Amaq) indeed found adventure, mystery, intrigue and new cultural experiences in their race for the cure.
