Description

Aislyn's life is turned upside down when she's offered a chance at the ultimate makeover. A revolutionary gene therapy drug, known as Charisma, promises to make her shine, but at a deadly cost. As the disease spreads and the media goes into a frenzy, Aislyn must find a way to stop it before it's too late. With its fast-paced and edgy plot, Charisma balances suspense with thought-provoking discussions of bioethics. A sympathetic protagonist and intriguing medical possibilities make for a solid thriller. This book is a cautionary tale about the perils of designer genetics and the importance of ethics in scientific pursuits.
