CRISPR is already rewriting human DNA. The only question left is who controls the code. On the night before her wedding to the world's youngest billionaire, Mika Maki is torn from a private Hawaiian beach and vanished into the black. The men who took her are not after money. They are after the secrets she carries-and the classified program she has been running against them for years. Inside North Korea, gene-editing technology has been perfected into something far more dangerous than rogue medicine. Soldiers of impossible size and strength already walk the earth. Their engineered traits are permanent-heritable. Designed to outcompete and eventually replace the rest of us. Billionaire Jonathan Matthews refuses to wait for governments or diplomacy. With elite U.S. Army Rangers and technology the public will never be allowed to know exists, he launches a rescue that becomes a race against the birth of a new human species. This is not speculative fiction. The tools already exist. In 2018, the first gene-edited babies were born, for real. De-extinct animals walk the earth, today, for real. The only thing still missing is the will to use them without restraint. If You're Not Afraid, You're Not Paying Attention.
