Cover mortals as they walk by Markus McDowell

In the near future, when biotechnology is stretching the limits of ethics and legality, a man, a woman, and a young child are caught up in a heavily funded project based on the work of a brilliant geneticist. But bio-research firms, Big Pharm, governments, and black marketeers see a way to become wealthy and powerful. Kidnappings, payoffs, political intrigue, and murder follow the test subjects, who must decide what to do with the data and the lives that have been destroyed—and find a way to save the child.

Available from select retailers in paperback and eBook.


A timely novel! Not heavy on the science, but McDowell did his research into genetic engineering and DNA editing…it’s a great story with a human element that propels the reader through it.

Great characters, and a great story with some mystery and revelations that I did not see coming.
I won’t give the ending away but you’ll want more!
