Young Adult Suspense
In this gripping debut novel, seventeen-year-old Cat must
use her gene-hacking skills to decode her late father’s
message concealing a vaccine to a horrifying plague. Catarina Agatta is a hacker. She can cripple mainframes and
crash through firewalls, but that’s not what makes her
special. In Cat’s world, people are implanted with
technology to recode their DNA, allowing them to change
their bodies in any way they want. And Cat happens to be a
gene-hacking genius. That’s no surprise, since Cat’s father is Dr. Lachlan
Agatta, a legendary geneticist who may be the last hope for
defeating a plague that has brought humanity to the brink of
extinction. But during the outbreak, Lachlan was kidnapped
by a shadowy organization called Cartaxus, leaving Cat to
survive the last two years on her own. When a Cartaxus soldier, Cole, arrives with news that her
father has been killed, Cat’s instincts tell her it’s just
another Cartaxus lie. But Cole also brings a message: before
Lachlan died, he managed to create a vaccine, and Cole needs
Cat’s help to release it and save the human race. Now Cat must decide who she can trust: The soldier with
secrets of his own? The father who made her promise to hide
from Cartaxus at all costs? In a world where nature itself
can be rewritten, how much can she even trust herself?
