100 years ago, they vanished. No one knew why, no one knew how - no one knew anything. The scientists were stunned, hell the world was stunned, and as for myself, I knew it was a moment that would haunt our history. My name is Betty Anders, a small-town teacher with an intrepid husband. David and I lived our peaceful, uneventful lives in Nebraska: I taught, while he pursued his research in biogenetic engineering. His breakthrough discovery - quantum entangled botany - gave us hope for a brighter, more sustainable future… which turned to utter fear when the government took it too far.
