Summary
A young and unsuspecting chemist, Larry Finlay, has been working for a long time on a new approach to the problem of hemophilia. Suddenly sinister forces show a particular interest in Larry's work. Soon, Finlay is caught up in a nightmare of violence and counter-violence. A group of women known as the "White Widows" are at the core of a generations-long plot to eliminate the male sex and make the world safe for the real people -- women!
