There are no genehs...

Human genetic engineering has been banned for decades, and the last geneh – genetically engineered human – was killed twenty years ago.

But after a string of strange burglaries, trainee detective Miriam Hunter unearths evidence that the thief is a female geneh. Yet that is impossible. Where did she come from and what motives lie behind her mysterious thefts? What secrets are her victims hiding and why do so many of them have links to the President?

Miriam must follow a broken trail of contradictory clues to the truth behind the thief's nature and origin, through the corruption and betrayals that surround her, and ultimately face her own choices.

But will it be a choice she is prepared to make?

More than just a gripping detective story, more than just intriguing science fiction, this is a work that explores the ethical and philosophical themes surrounding genetic engineering, justice and the law.

(This is the prequel to the AI thriller Frankensteel).

    Thank you. If (I mean - when!) you like it, I would appreciate reviews on Amazon, especially for The Geneh War and Time Enough for Killing, which are a bit sparse in the review area.
    Enjoy!

    Agreed. They are definitely logical in context. I just had to be very careful when choosing my own logo.

    The cover for this book looks a lot like Moral Machines by Wendell Wallach, a friend of mine. It is different, but not a lot different.

    I actually looked at both of these covers when trying to design a new logo for Florida Tech's Biomedical Engineering Department.

    Just finished it. I loved it! By the end of chapter 2 I knew I was going to read all three of them. Already purchased and downloaded both of the others in the series.
