The time is the future. Robots are doing the work previously performed by humans. The replacement of workers by robots is both predictable and inevitable. The owner of the largest robotics company in the world decides to create the perfect woman. He hires the best engineer to construct her body, and the best programmer to construct her brain. He buys an island and changes its name to Eden Island. He names the plan Project Eve, and she is planned to be the prototype for a new race of women to replace flawed womanhood. He does not foresee the consequences of his plan, such is his obsession. He does create the perfect woman in body and mind, but when she acquires human characteristics his plan starts to unravel. Project Eve ends in disaster.

John Rainsford worked in the automotive industry for many years until the writing bug forced him to make a choice. He chose writing.

Its onward march is seldom explored nor questioned, but there is a price to pay for every new invention by mankind. And the pace of technology moves faster than any law formulated by nations.
