Extinction is no longer forever.

Genetic scientist Zahra Mir has never even kept a cat. In the fast-paced genetic engineering industry, pets aren’t compatible with her career ambitions. Especially when the US military offers her the chance of a lifetime: a project to resurrect an extinct raptor species – the deinonychus – for use in special forces units.

Despite her misgivings about the military’s plan, Zahra can’t resist the challenge of recreating the dinosaurs. But as the raptors mature, they become more than a project to her. One raptor in particular, Singer, impresses Zahra with her curiosity and intelligence.

Aided by the animal handler in charge of the raptors’ care, Zahra does her best to teach them about the world they’ve been brought into.

But a brutal training exercise reveals the military wants to turn them into weapons and use her research to make monsters. If Singer and the other raptors are going to have a future, Zahra must find a way to free them from the army’s control.

The price of success might be her own freedom.

The Athabasca Project is a hard science fiction thriller with themes of genetic engineering perfect for fans of David Brin and Michael Crichton.
