The Biochemical Conspiracy--a suspense thriller jammed with genetically-engineered theories...and an adventurously romantic storyline.
In the Biochemical Conspiracy, the mineral bath on Lord Cameron’s estate was tagged "a haven" for people with problems with their joints and muscles until Roul Parker, turned up missing, a pool of fish dead and banned chemicals surfaced. While sleuthing around, Savannah, the feisty Marine Biologist summoned to conduct research on the mineral bath where Roul was last seen alive, uncovers a concealed waterfall, underground river and squid-shaped metallic objects. Determined to unearth the truth, she discovers that the confidant, she least suspects, was crossing human DNA with plant cells, animal cells and the genes of the Dipnoi lungfish to create an aquatic species of multicellular organisms, which she must secretly eradicate. After falling prey to her kidnappers, Savannah must team up with a cocky detective, a man she wouldn’t want to live with, but sure could use to sleep with, to preserve her life and identity. Conflicting concepts, mocking memories and vanquished love weave daunting webs before lust, treachery, and murder heighten to a dramatic yet passionate conclusion in this brilliantly written novel.
