Thrillers

"A thought-provoking story that will keep you questioning long after the last page... A journey into a future that feels frighteningly possible." - Reader What if you could place your newborn into cryo-suspension until it was more convenient to bring him or her home? In an Austin, Texas Postponement Center, Nora Collins helps parents make the controversial choice to cryogenically preserve their newborns until the time is more convenient to bring them home. But for a woman past child-bearing years, watching over frozen babies becomes more than just a job—it becomes an obsession that forces Nora to confront her own past decisions.

★ A unique blend of domestic thriller and near-future science fiction

★ A story that tackles complex moral questions without taking sides

★ An emotional journey of redemption and difficult choices

★ A thought-provoking look at the future of parenthood

"I read it in one sitting... a story that makes you think while keeping you on the edge of your seat." - Reader

When a mother's decision puts her child's life at risk, Nora must choose between professional duty and moral obligation. Her choice will challenge everything she believes about right and wrong, past and future, love and sacrifice.

Perfect for readers who love:

• Thought-provoking moral dilemmas • Near-future science fiction • Character-driven suspense • Complex emotional drama • Stories that challenge contemporary issues

From Diane M. Dresback comes a story that bridges the gap between current reproductive debates and future possibilities, asking one crucial question: Just because we can postpone parenthood, should we?
