Murder is a crime. Forcing someone to live forever is something else entirely.In this explosive new thriller, the age-old quest for immortality becomes a terrifying tool for power and global control. The sinister reality of bio-engineering explodes into public view near the Vatican, where a man survives a devastating Ferrari crash—ejected like a ragdoll, yet standing up and walking away without a single injury. This impossible regeneration is not a miracle; it is a signal. The footage is rapidly scrubbed from existence by mysterious, unseen forces.Enter Nathan Kane, the brilliant CEO of Echelon Biotech, who built his empire on saving lives. His company, a pioneer in biometric repair and cellular modulation, makes him a threat to the shadowy organization known only as The Pact. The Pact has perfected a synthetic peptide capable of initiating wound-healing with impossible speed, reprogramming the genome to make regeneration the body’s default state. Immortality is now possible.Nathan is in a desperate race against time to protect the only person who matters: his daughter, Sophie, who is battling an aggressive glioblastoma. The Pact needed leverage to force Nathan's hand, and they found it in Sophie, flagging her as a perfect genomic match for integration.When Nathan realizes The Pact not only lured him to their secretive island fortress, Eterna Cay, but already exposed Sophie to the molecule, curing her cancer only to bind her to their system, the game changes. Now, Nathan and a small team of allies must dismantle everything The Pact built. The fight is personal and impossible, forcing them to seize the code—even as Nathan himself is exposed to the molecule’s unstable AI variant. They must define the very meaning of life before they are trapped in a biological system that offers them a fate far worse than death.
