About the Book
It's 1950 New York City. Alissa Adams wants one thing - to become a scientist in a world that says women don't belong.
When a gorgeous, unorthodox, bohemian classmate invites her to collaborate on a revolutionary science film, Alissa accepts the challenge, hoping it will provide the acceptance she craves. Instead, a crack appears in her lifelong plans. Standing at the crossroads, she must choose between her steady fiancé, the enigmatic, adventuresome bohemian, or her own path as a research scientist.
Her mind was made for discovery. Society was built to stop her.
