Publisher Description
A cure for aging is all the rage these days, with scientists only a few decades away from extending life to 150 years or more. So when Dr. Ben Peterson is offered twenty million dollars to develop the so-called Body Fortress Drug—a cure for all disease—he was surprised as anyone when he actually did it! However, along the way, he also developed the opposite, a drug that leaves the body susceptible to ALL diseases . . . the perfect biological weapon.
This is a thrill-a-minute rollercoaster ride of scientific intrigue and of a billionaire madman's obsession to live forever. And now he's sent his army of henchmen after the only people in the world who can stop him . . . an NSA 'thief' and his crippled father, along with a beautiful CDC epidemiologist. The stakes have never been higher. Succeed . . . or three-quarters of the world's population will die.
Now, this trio of reluctant heroes is in a desperate race to provide an antidote to the deadly formula before the madman can fulfill his ultimate desire: To live forever . . . and without competition from other human beings. And he has seventeen billion dollars to work with to make sure he gets what he wants.
