About the Book

When geneticist Dr. Sarah Chen discovers an engineered bioweapon hidden inside GenVault Corporation's laboratories, she has forty-three seconds to escape the building before security locks down. What she carries out—Morrison's classified archive—is proof that THRESHOLD, a program designed to reduce the global population by four billion, is real and already deployed.

Dr. James Morrison, GenVault's head of research, built THRESHOLD after his daughter Emily's death convinced him that humanity's next collapse was inevitable. His solution: engineer a targeted pathogen and deploy it through forty-seven hubs worldwide. Catherine Wells—his superior, a descendant of the Order's three-thousand-year bloodline—has been managing Morrison and the program from the shadows.

Recruited by FBI Agent Torres and working alongside coworker Dr. David Lagos, Sarah races to prevent the remaining forty-six hubs from activating after Hub 47 in Kunming goes live. But stopping the weapon is only half the problem. The government's response—a classified NDA that silences Sarah permanently under the Espionage Act—means the world will never know the pandemic was engineered. Sarah must choose between justice and the math that says silence saves more lives than truth.
