Neo-Chicago 2077: a city where your DNA dictates your destiny. The genetically blessed live in opulent sky-piercing towers, their lifespans extended, their bodies perfected. Below, in the smog-choked canyons, the unaltered masses struggle, burdened by inherited flaws and the crushing weight of the Genetic Tax, enforced by the IRS with ruthless efficiency.
Erin Wilson, an IRS Special Agent, knows this disparity all too well. Driven by a personal tragedy linked to her own flawed genes, she hunts tax evaders with unwavering resolve. But a routine audit explodes into a conspiracy that reaches the highest echelons of power, revealing a terrifying new technology — the Genesis Protocol — capable of rewriting the very fabric of humanity.
Jordan Patton, a GenTec executive with superhuman abilities, is just the beginning. Erin’s investigation plunges her into a world of genetic black markets, augmented security forces, and a chilling plot to create a new species, a genetically superior elite above the law, above humanity itself.
Caught in the crossfire is Erin’s sister, Melissa, seduced by the promise of genetic enhancement and a life free from inherited flaws. Her pursuit of perfection draws her into the heart of the conspiracy, creating a heartbreaking rift between the sisters and forcing Erin to choose between her duty and her family.
As the city teeters on the brink of chaos, Erin must confront Paul Kennedy, the mastermind behind the Genesis Protocol, in a final, desperate showdown within the gleaming towers of GenTec. The battle for the future of humanity is about to begin, and the price of genetic perfection may be far higher than anyone imagined.
