The Forbidden Strain (The Chama Conspiracies)

By Brian Montross

They vanished without a trace. Someone is rewriting the human genome-and the future of humanity.

When a high-ranking government official is found murdered in a Santa Fe hotel, FBI Agent Liz Shaw and Detective Alejandro Hernandez are pulled into a case no one wants solved. Their investigation leads to a remote facility hidden beneath tribal land-Red Mesa Biotechnics-a company that claims to develop sustainable technology.

It's a lie.

Funded by the global elite, Red Mesa is perfecting a serum that could extend human life for a thousand years. Children-missing from the reservation-are being used as unwilling test subjects. Over it all, a new kind of intelligence is watching: EVE, a quantum-engineered bio-AI designed to manipulate DNA at the molecular level.

As wildfire races across the New Mexico desert, Shaw, Hernandez, and their team must unravel a conspiracy older than science itself-one built on stolen gold, buried identities, and the bodies of the innocent.

The truth has been hidden underground.

Until now.
