In the year 2028, Malcolm Starnes, lead researcher for HGDI, the Human Genome Development Institute, has developed a method for inserting facts and knowledge into human DNA. This genetic modification could deliver learning and education to all without a time consuming and expensive process. As HGDI moves toward congressional approval and potential human trials, Malcolm becomes increasingly uneasy as he realizes what is at stake. He must protect his family and face responsibility for the role he has played. What HGDI has intended for the good of humanity becomes an ethical quagmire as others attempt to direct and misuse this powerful capability. Malcolm finds himself in a deadly tug of war with those who would use the Moneta Splice to further their own toxic agenda.
A very timely adventure novel set in the current scientific and political environment where characters wrestle with the most basic of human rights; to make their own decisions and think for themselves.
In her debut novel, Kimbley sets a new standard for genetic modification and intrigue.
