Nibiru's Child

Can Samantha Survive? Samantha Fitzhugh leads a quiet, wallflower life in the genius class of her high school. She never knew her father, and her mother is off in Antarctica, absorbed in a career as an archaeologist. A series of freakish events in the school has her on the verge of being expelled. Out of the blue, the hottest boy in the class invites her into his family to stay until her mom returns. There she finds warm and loving parents, even if they are a bit strange- a professor father with profound arcane knowledge and a psychic mother who reads minds and casts spells. They believe that the vestiges of some inherited power are starting to emerge from her. They caution her that high school is a hormonal time. If she wishes to go down this road, she must retain her chastity. Meanwhile, a mad artist is spontaneously producing paintings of Samantha that have become a focus of worship for a gang of crazed, meth-dealing bikers. They believe she is the descendant of Inanna, an ancient Sumerian goddess from the lost planet Nibiru. The gang leader is a former college professor with a murderous thirst for vengeance against those who drove him out of the profession. He believes in Samantha's magical descent and her link to a planet with a 3,600-year orbit that will bring it smashing through the Earth's solar system. He wants her and intends to possess her, no matter who he has to kill.
