《连线》 Kira Miller is a brilliant genetic* engineer who discovers how to temporarily achieve savant-like capabilities in all areas of thought and creativity. But what if this transcendent* level of intelligence brings with it a ruthless megalomania*? David Desh left the special forces after his team was brutally butchered in Iran. Now he has been called back for one last mission: find Miller, the enigmatic genius behind a bioterror plot that threatens millions. But when Desh learns that the bioterror plot is just the tip of the iceberg, he is thrust into a byzantine* maze of deception and intrigue, and he becomes a key player in a deadly game he can’t begin to understand. The game is certain to have a dramatic impact on the future course of human history. The book is a smart thriller crammed with action, unexpected twists, mind-expanding science, and intriguing concepts readers will be thinking about long after they’ve read the last page.
