It was about the money...now it's about the cure.
Haunted by the reason he's given a second chance at life, a grieving father races against time and Wall Street's next cover-boy to deliver the genetic cure of the century.
"Dang! What an intense read! The characters are full and vibrant, despite the darkness within. Fast-paced and full of action!"-Patty D Vine Voice
There are over one hundred clinical trials underway in the US using gene therapy to treat cancer...there are none underway to treat greed.
Twenty years ago, David Wellington helplessly watched as a genetic imperfection took his young son's life. On that day, his heart hardened, and he promised he'd never care for another person again. Determined to fill the hole in his heart with money, he married the founder's adulterous daughter and embarked on a life of greed and self-indulgence.
Now, at forty-five, he prepares to get the payoff for selling his soul when he takes Rexsen Labs public. Propelled by the pending FDA approval of CGT, the first genetic cure for cancer, he's on the verge of becoming Newport Beach's newest billionaire.
But his dream suddenly becomes a nightmare when his plane crashes into the Pacific and he faces the ultimate consequence for the selfish life he's led. Miraculously, he survives and is forced to battle Wall Street's next cover boy and the company he helped build to unravel CGT's deadly secret. A twelve-year-old girl's life hangs in the balance, and he risks everything to find the reason behind his second chance at life and his only chance for love.
Genetic Imperfections is a story about how the fundamental goodness in one man can be buried by tragedy and replaced with bitterness and greed-and how the path to redemption reveals itself in mysterious ways.
