In a cave high in the Alps, a renegade anthropologist discovers a frozen Neanderthal couple with a Homo sapiens baby. Meanwhile, in southern Russia, the U.N. investigation of a mysterious mass grave is cut short. One of the investigators, molecular biologist Kaye Lang, returns home to the U.S. to learn that her theory on human retroviruses has been verified with the discovery of SHEVA, a virus that has slept in our DNA for millions of years and is now waking up. How are these seemingly disparate events connected? Kaye Lang and her colleagues must race against a genetic time bomb to find out.
Darwin’s Radio pulses with intelligent speculation, international adventure, and political intrigue as it explores timeless human themes. George Guidall’s masterful performance heightens the excitement and keeps you enthralled until the final fascinating word.

Eleven years have passed since SHEVA was discovered in human DNA, a retrovirus that caused mutations in the human genome and heralded the arrival of a new wave of genetically enhanced humans. Now these changed children have reached adolescence…and face a world that is outraged about their very existence. For these special youths are also ticking time bombs that could exterminate the “old” human race.
“Bear’s sure sense of character, his fluid prose style and the fascinating culture his ‘Shevite’ children begin to develop all make for serious SF of the highest order.” (Publishers Weekly)
“Top-shelf science fiction, thrilling and intellectually charged.” (Amazon.com)
