Life Sentence

Master of suspense Andrew Neiderman spins a spine-tingling tale about an aging experiment that goes horribly awry, and the lengths to which people will go to stop the clock  

In the Intensive Care Unit of the Oakland Clinic, a terminally ill patient vanishes. An elderly patient suddenly flat-lines . . . and that’s just the beginning. Today, Ceil Morris had a visit from her son. Except that Bradley Morris, a convicted murderer, was killed in prison six months ago. So who is the man who shows up on Ceil’s doorstep claiming to be her only child—a man decades older than she?
 
Soon homicide cops Palmer Dorian and Tucker Browning find themselves investigating a shadowy organization and a scientist known for his revolutionary work on aging. But their search for answers brings them face-to-face with a seemingly unstoppable evil from which even they may not escape.
