DON'T GO IN ALONE! The top-floor hurricane party went well—until the freakish storm forced the party-goers into the Cancer Research Institute's basement. Now their only escape is through a labyrinth of barely-lit tunnels that are rapidly flooding. Pretty biologist Carmen Niles leads the others through the maze, and falls into a deadly scheme to sabotage the Institute's experiments, involving a biker drug gang, psychics, stock fraud, and a horde of one-minute piranhas made by experimental computer 'genechips'. Few heed Ed’s warnings that this water is from the spirit world, and that their best protection will not be science, but charms and incantations. Brisk dialogue and a tight roller-coaster plot leaves the reader guessing until the last page. 'A plot worthy of the movies', say reviewers in this speculative sci-fi novel based on the ideas of the famous physicist Stephen Wolfram.

Carm shook her head, turned and fell back against the door. “Serrasalsus Hollandi.”
“Piranhas! But how–”
A thump sounded on the other side of the door. Carm jumped and Melanie peered through the aperture–she shrieked and jerked back. George's face slammed onto the glass, more skull than flesh. Bloody hands scraped the glass, the eyes glaring drunkenly at them. 'My world,' the jaws mouthed…
