Whispr, whose body has been transformed to preternatural thinness, was once a streetwise thief. Now, in a world on the edge of catastrophe from centuries of environmental exploitation, they are allies--thrust together by fate to unravel an impossible mystery--even as they are stalked by a relentless killer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Ingrid and Whispr are hunted fugitives bound together by a thread: a data-storage thread made of a material that cannot exist, yet somehow does. Their quest to learn its secrets--and, in Whispr's case, sell them to the highest bidder--has brought them to South Africa's treacherous Namib desert. Beyond its dangers waits a heavily guarded research facility that promises answers, if they can survive long enough to get there. But that won't be easy, not with Napun Mol  on their trail. They've already escaped the assassin twice, and as far as Mol  is concerned, finishing them off isn't just a job anymore . . . it's personal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Random House Worlds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780345512024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.21h x 5.54w x 0.55d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/13\/2012 pg. 45\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2012 pg. 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRomantic Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2012 pg. 62 - Good\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Alan Dean Foster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43433805381813,"sku":"9780345512024","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_e89f30c4-1a90-4878-a0ff-cc94d08c9942.jpg?v=1703569593","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-sum-of-her-parts-9780345512024","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
