Book Overview
A riveting novel that spans the Multiverse, The Immortality Gene is packed with non-stop action. When Assistant United States Attorney Colton O'Rourke is drawn into the investigation of a plane crash outside Washington, D.C. that killed all aboard, he soon discovers that the crash is anything but a normal accident. The cockpit door had been pulled off its hinges with inhuman strength and strange insectoid DNA is discovered under the fingernails of one of the crash victims. Joined in his investigation by FBI Special Agent Willie Green and the stunningly beautiful CIA Assistant General Counsel Josephine Landry, his life hangs in the balance as he comes under constant attack from shadowy and mysterious sources.
Meanwhile, on Zoria, a world adjacent to Earth in the Multiverse, Lord Astrial and his daughters are attacked by mutated creatures that are intent on destroying their planet. The mysterious Silver Orb created by an unknown race advises them that Zoria's only hope of salvation lies in a powerful gene found only in Earth's human genome. Their search across the Multiverse to locate Earth and the gene ultimately leads them to O'Rourke's investigation.
Following clues from India's Konark Sun Temple to the Amazon rainforest, O'Rourke, Green, and Landry unearth the shocking motive for the plane crash. As the fate of Zoria and Earth become intertwined, the stakes of the investigation become breathtakingly huge. Only the combined efforts of the two worlds stand a chance to save either from an ancient, alien evil.
