Description
Drew Bergen is an engineer who builds living things, one gene at a time. He's also a bit of a clumsy individual. Six years after the Stupid War, a conflict between those with engineered bodies and those without, Drew's latest project is a modified human being - his own daughter, Hannah. However, her classmate and a mysterious companion disagree with Drew's intentions, suspecting he's creating a potentially catastrophic strain of corn. When one of Drew's team members goes missing, he begins to suspect they may be right. As the situation escalates, corporate goons and government operatives hunt them, putting millions of lives at risk. This near-future thriller explores the consequences of playing with the fundamental differences between humans.
