The Genesis Code

Read The Genesis Code Storyline:

The Genesis Code, the mind-blowing techno-thriller debut novel from Lisa von Biela. Obedience and submission…uploaded directly to the brain… When Mark Weston is hired by OneMarket, the prestigious and premier supplier of global equity trading systems, owned by international business tycoon Simon Harris, he thinks he's found his dream job. Great pay, amazing benefits—and sure, the hours are long and the demands on his time are often extreme—but it means financial security for him and his wife Sheila, a new life and a new beginning, a fast track to success with a great company. But deep within the walls of the enigmatic OneMarket, there is something unthinkable happening that only a select few are aware of, the development of a new kind of invasive technology dubbed THE GENESIS CODE, that could not only expand Simon Harris' empire, but create a new, more efficient and obedient workforce. Mark and his coworkers have unknowingly become part of a horrifying experiment they may never be able to escape, and time is running out. A new kind of worker…a new kind of hybrid…a new kind of corporate slave… The Genesis Code…upload complete. “Part dark corporate techno-thriller, part cautionary tale, THE GENESIS CODE is an electrifying debut novel made all the more horrifying because of how plausible it is in our ever-expanding computer age.  If you like the works of Michael Crichton and Robin Cook, you’re going to love Lisa von Biela!” —Greg F. Gifune, author of The Bleeding Season "If you are looking for a heart racing, roller coaster ride of a book…you will be hard pressed to find a better tale than The Genesis Code" —Peter Schwotzer, Literary Mayhem**ReviewI have to say up front that I loved this book. Right from the very first chapter I was hooked. I was at a point that I just couldn't wait for my break or my lunch at work so I could find out what was going to happen next,  and the best part was the anticipation in between readings. Not many writers can hold my attention like that and for a debut novelist that doesn't happen very often with me. For a debut novel this was very very impressive. Lisa's characters were a joy to spend time with, even the despicable ones. The pacing was extraordinary, the twists and turns will take your breath away. --Peter Schwotzer, Literary Mayhem Lisa Von Biela gives the reader a fast-paced techno-thriller that opens quickly and just draws you right along for the ride and does not let up until the last couple pages (almost 300 solid pages of action). The characters are very likeable and real and the reader can instantly sympathize with them. The corporate enemy is also something that almost everyone can relate to as almost everyone has wondered at one time or another about what their employer does behind closed doors. While there were some technical aspects about computers and programming in the story, it was light enough to not bog down the action or lose the reader. Von Biela shows that she knows how to flesh out a story while still keeping it heading forward at breakneck speed. "The Genesis code" is another great production by Darkfuse and Lisa Von Biela is definitely an author that I will keep an eye out for in the future. This book is scheduled for a May release and I would recommend that everyone keep an eye out for this one. It is definitely not to be missed.
