In a world where coastal cities flood, dust storms plague the Midwest, and implants connect humans directly to the Web, Dr. Francine Burk has broken new ground in the study of primate sexuality.

Leaving Manhattan for a research campus outside Kansas City, Frankie finds that the bonobos sheâs studying are complex, with distinct personalities.

But when the entire campus is caught in a sudden emergency, the lines between subject and scientistâand between colleague and companionâbegin to blur.
