When Wesley O'Keefe first realized he didn't age, he could've been hung as a witch. Now, he's eager to be studied by a microbiologist looking for a cure to cancer. All Wesley wants is to share his miracle with the world. In the year 2042, technology has made it almost impossible for him to assume new identities, and after three hundred years, he's tired of watching loved ones wither up and die.
Yet opening that Pandora's Box does not come without consequences. Powerful people will do whatever they can to hoard this miracle for themselves--no matter whom they have to step on, ruin, or kill. From bioterrorism to neural scans and artificial intelligence, they will use whatever means are available to them to meet their end. Wesley's past will catch up to him in ways he could have never imagined, and he will find that he has more to lose than he ever knew.
When the superstitious past meets the technologically progressive future, ancient grudges can be catastrophic, and agelessness can spread like a virus.
