"Sea Change is like liquid nitrogen ice cream-a chilling treat."-Greg Bear, author of Eon and Take Back the Sky
Operative Renata Black has a serious problem-a self-driving house causing a traffic snarl. When Renata spots the Org's Tiffany Teal paint marking a windowsill, she discovers a dangerous mystery within the house itself.
In 2022, GMOs were banned after a bio-pharmed drug caused the Catastrophe: worldwide economic collapse, agricultural standstill, and personal tragedy for a lawyer and her son. Ten years later, Renata, a.k.a. Caroline Denton, is a member of the Org, an underground group of scientists, functioning in splinter cells that are hunted by the feds. But the Org's illegal food-research might hold the key to rebuilding the worlds' food supply.
Now there's a mole in the Org, and Black is the only one who can find out who it is. At risk: the possibility of a second, even more devastating climate collapse. For answers, Black will need to go all the way to her Quinault Nation legal clients, to reveal environmental dangers-and solutions-that the world has not been willing to face.
Nancy Kress, one of our finest speculative writers, once again delivers a smart, mesmerizing, and surprisingly nuanced look at the ecological, technological, and political shifts we cannot afford to avoid.
Nancy Kress is the bestselling author of more than thirty science-fiction and fantasy novels and novellas, including Beggars in Spain, Probability Space, and Steal Across the Sky. To date, she has also published more than ten short-story collections and three nonfiction books for Writer's Digest on the fundamentals of writing. Kress is a six-time Nebula Award winner, including two consecutive awards for her novellas After the Fall, Before the Fall, During the Fall and Yesterday's Kin. She is also the recipient of the Sturgeon and Campbell awards, as well as two Hugo awards. Her fiction has been translated into nearly two dozen languages, including Klingon. Kress teaches writing at workshops, including Clarion West and Taos Toolbox, as well as at the University of Leipzig in Germany, as a guest professor. Kress lives in Seattle, Washington, with her husband, the author Jack Skillingstead, and Cosette, the world's most spoiled toy poodle.
