Jake Helman, an
elite member of the New York Special Homicide Task Force,
faces what every cop dreads—an elusive serial killer. While
investigating a series of bloodletting sacrifice rituals
executed by an ominous perpetrator known as the Cipher, Jake
refuses to submit to a drug test and resigns from the police
department. While battling a cocaine addiction, Jake
starts a high-pressure position as the director of security
at Tower International, a controversial genetic-engineering
company. Beneath the polished exterior of the corporate
identity and the CEO—who has a reputation as the
frontiersman on the cutting edge of science—is a deranged
mind. As Jake delves deeper into this frightening
laboratory, he discovers much more than unethical practices
performed in the name of human progress. Sequestered in
rooms veiled in secrecy is the worst crime the world will
ever see—the theft of the human soul. Horrifying and
gruesome, this is a gripping, suspense-filled novel that
offers intense arguments about science, ethics, and human
life.
