In 2032, Daniel McKnight, a high-ranking government official and biologist, who has cofounded a state-of-the-art, cryo-preservation laboratory, aquarium and sanctuary, Noah's Freezer, reveals a childhood secret-he has been in contact with extraterrestrials for most of his life. This fact places him and the ones he loves in great jeopardy, when a strange object attaches itself to the orbiting space station. This enigmatic orb, that can alter human consciousness, immediately becomes the focus of sinister government operatives who attempt to keep it a secret. They try to break Daniel, as his friends plan to reveal the real truth of the "Mind Orb." These events are paralleled by the daunting problem of protecting and nurturing the first cloned mammoth-a project he and his partner Adrian Charles created at Noah's Freezer. The story's conclusion introduces a strange and beautiful extraterrestrial woman who assists them in their mission.
