   Additional Information  
 
  Decades have passed since a biological war almost cleared the world of men. Now women are left to run the world, and with a utopia as good as this, who would ever want men back?

This is the way to execute a man. Listen up. Do not shut your eyes as you shoot the man may move. Do not look into his eyes. He may attempt to seduce you. Do not give him time to speak. Do not shout a warning. Be swift. Go into the chamber. Kill the man. Drag his body to the incineration chute. And then leave with a smile. I ve been there, Berlin Qualye. I know that if my advice were followed then no executioner would ever lose either her life, her maidenhood, or her mind. In a world laid waste by biological war, can one close family really change the course of history? And can one disturbed woman mastermind a plan that will turn utopia upside down?
