Sinossi

A Dead Sea Scrolls Thriller...

Biotech CEO Lucas Sebastian Roth is under siege.

Facing extraordinary pressure from politicians and activists, his animal-to-human organ cloning research is praised by some as the Holy Grail of medical science and damned by others as a threat to our very existence.

Escaping relentless scrutiny following a high-profile congressional investigation into his company, GENEsis, Lucas reconnects with friend and former lover Arina Mai on a remote archaeological dig into sacred history. But in asking the desert to reveal its buried secrets, ethical lines blur, and a 2,000-year-old Dead Sea Scrolls mystery draws the pair into grave danger.

Now thrust into a deadly race against those who would possess the past in order to define our future, Lucas must prevent the unimaginable collision of an ancient biblical artifact and his own shrouded scientific ambitions. With the very fabric of modern society threatening to tear, will Lucas Roth deliver mankind’s salvation… or destruction?
