Synopsis
The more man learns, the more dangerous he becomes. The greater the civilization, the greater the chaos it eventually unleashes...
If you discovered the secret of immortality, to whom would you give it? To the scientists, the politicians, the military? To the Americans? The Russians? The Chinese?
If you weren't after power or money or fame but really wanted to increase human happiness, what would you do with your secret? Go underground? Run away? Pray that you might outlive civilization and be given the chance to start it all over again?
And if the authorities found you, what would they do?
Here is a chilling, provocative and unforgettable novel about the present and the future of mankind.
