“Ryan (Nerve) offers a cautionary tale about the perils of designer genetics and what happens when scientists’ aspirations get ahead of ethics. Her take on the topic is fresh and intriguing.”—Publishers Weekly
“Suspense balances with discussions of bioethics for a provocative and entertaining read. A sympathetic protagonist combines with intriguing medical possibility for a solid thriller.”—Kirkus Reviews
