Scientist Peter
Bernhardt has dedicated his life to nanotechnology, the science of
manipulating matter on the atomic scale. As the founder of Biogineers,
he is on the cusp of revolutionizing brain therapies with microscopic
nanorobots that will make certain degenerative diseases become a thing
of the past. But after his research is stolen by an unknown enemy,
seventy thousand people die in Las Vegas in one abominable moment. No
one is more horrified than Peter, as this catastrophe sets in motion
events that will forever change not only his life but also the course of human evolution.
Peter’s company is torn from his grasp as the
public clamors for his blood. Desperate, he turns to an old friend, who
introduces him to the Phoenix Club, a cabal of the most powerful people
in the world. To make himself more valuable to his new colleagues, Peter infuses his brain with experimental technology, exponentially upgrading his mental prowess and transforming him irrevocably.
As he’s
exposed to unimaginable wealth and influence, Peter’s sense of reality
begins to unravel. Do the club members want to help him, or do they just want to claim his technology? What will they do to him once they have
their prize? And while he’s already evolved beyond mere humanity, is he
advanced enough to take on such formidable enemies and win?
