Immortal
What if aging isn't natural?
What if it was engineered, written into our DNA and timed down to the final heartbeat?
Dr. Jason Conrad has spent decades pursuing the impossible: a cure for aging. Beneath the neon glare of Las Vegas, he creates a serum that does more than extend life. It stops the genetic countdown entirely.
When Jason tests it on himself, his body becomes stronger, faster, and seemingly indestructible. His mind awakens to extraordinary levels of cognition, and abilities modern science insists are impossible.
But a discovery that can end aging can also overturn the world.
Some want the formula destroyed. Others will kill to control it. As powerful interests close in, Jason escapes to a secluded villa on Saint Kitts and forms the Council: an alliance of visionaries, public figures, and unlikely guardians, including Kalon, a superintelligent AI whose calculations reach far beyond human understanding.
The few chosen to receive the serum become the Guardians, immortal protectors bound by a constitution and a single promise: to give the cure freely to humanity when humanity is ready.
That day may be fifty years away.
Until then, the Guardians must keep the serum out of the wrong hands, survive the war gathering around them, and confront the consequences of placing eternal life within humanity's reach.
Grounded in biotechnology and propelled by high-stakes intrigue, IMMORTAL explores the collision of science, power, hope, and human ambition, and asks:
If death is no longer inevitable, who gets to decide when the world is ready to live forever?
