Genesis Alpha

Josh wants to grow up to be just like his older brother Max. They're particularly close since Josh was a designer baby, born so his stem cells could save his brother's life. Both share a passion for game playing, particularly Genesis Alpha. Josh's life is shattered when Max is accused of a brutal murder and the dead girl's sister claims to be able to prove his guilt through their favourite game. What's worse is that if it hadn't been for Josh saving Max's life the murder would never have happened. Is he guilty too and how will he himself turn out? This emotional, intriguing and intelligent thriller explores complex ethics and issues at the cutting edge of science, the moral dilemmas and the nature of evil. It's compelling stuff.
