Description
"A novel in the best tradition of Douglas Preston and Michael Crichton ... with a little John Grisham thrown in. A young woman, Erin Palmer, witnesses a psychopath murder her parents and sister. The bloody trauma propels her into a scientific career. She is studying the microbiology of the psychopathic brain, and is on a quest to discover the DNA which engenders the cerebral disease. Teaming up with a powerful but eccentric billionaire, she at last isolates the deadly DNA and is on the verge of finding a cure for the psychological malady. But things and people are not what they seem. Both the young man she thinks she loves and the tycoon who has befriended her have a sinister side she did not understand. Erin is ensnared in a global conspiracy which may culminate in humanity's utter destruction. The fate of the earth is in Erin's hands, and the world must hold its breath and wait"--
