Read Biohack Storyline:

What price would you pay to know the truth?
Kaden Baker, an elite hacker and covert ops specialist, finds her life turned upside down when she discovers that the parents who raised her were imposters.
Were they hired by the same shadowy figure who's been financing her high-stakes secret missions beneath the Vatican and in Washington, D.C.?
She crosses paths with Valerie, a special ed teacher still haunted by her toddler's drowning accident. Together they're drawn to a mysterious biotech company where they make one startling discovery after another. But each step closer to the truth puts their lives at greater risk.
The stakes couldn't be higher--for Kaden's freedom, for Valerie's fate, and for the future direction of humanity itself.

From the Author
3 questions for the author of *Biohack*
Biohack has been described as a technothriller and a near-future science thriller, but it also has elements of a crime thriller, science fiction, conspiracy thriller, medical thriller, and even legal thriller. Was that intentional?
Yeah, it definitely blurs genre boundaries. I set out to play in the fertile terrain pioneered by the late, great Michael Crichton while going for a sprawling international vibe a la Tom Clancy. But my focus was on the characters.
I also didn't want to draw from the usual cast of thriller characters--no FBI agents, hard-boiled detectives, or rogue CIA operatives. Instead, you'll find a diverse set of underrepresented voices, a kick-ass protagonist, and a theme of women reasserting their power.
There are a lot of jaw-dropping scenes and I was wondering at times, Can this really happen?
I think the most powerful stories are built on a foundation of truth. So I spent months of research to get the science and details right. Most people don't know about the enormous implications of the reproductive technologies coming just around the bend. The future is hurtling toward us, and we're not ready for it. 
Who's the audience for Biohack?
Early readers say it's a good fit for fans of Michael Crichton, Dan Brown, Clive Cussler, Tim Tigner, and A.G. Riddle--that's flattering. My job is to get out of the way and not let fussy writing get in the way of a rollicking good story.
