Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In a stratified future where genetically engineered 'Vatborn' humans are given a one-time biological Reset-a genetic reversion that restores the body to its physical prime around age 30-aging has become optional for the privileged. Marked by a bioluminescent gene that shifts from dormant gray to luminous gold, the Reset is sold as a gift of renewal. Natural-born humans, left to age and die without it, watch from the margins as an immortal elite consolidates power. Dr. Elara Vance, a 59-year-old Vatborn geneticist who helped design the early Reset protocols, discovers her own mark beginning to glow. As she digs into long-buried data, she uncovers a devastating truth: the Reset does more than restore youth. It prunes neural pathways formed after age 30, quietly erasing memories, relationships, and the very identity a person has spent decades building. What the government markets as a second chance is, in reality, a tool of control-creating compliant, streamlined citizens whose loyalty can be refreshed on demand. Joining forces with Jonah Reyes, a Natural investigative journalist whose father died in a covered-up Reset complication, Elara races to expose the system before her own activation window closes. Alongside Mira Sol, a working-class Vatborn torn between financial security and the fear of forgetting her late husband, and confronting the charismatic political leader Cassian Vale-who Reset decades earlier and now advocates mandatory renewal-they uncover a conspiracy that reaches back to the Collapse Wars and the origins of the engineered divide. As public unrest grows and the corporation tightens its grip, Elara faces an impossible choice: activate her Reset and survive as a diminished version of herself, destroy the system entirely, or risk everything to rewrite the code so that youth no longer demands the sacrifice of memory. A gripping exploration of identity, mortality, and manufactured inequality, \*The Color of Reset\* asks what makes a life continuous-and whether a second chance is worth the cost of forgetting who you became.…
