Product Description
Mon, Jan 20, 2003--TIME magazine publishes an article entitled "Children and Violence: The Search for a Murder Gene." This article describes two early-teen brothers bludgeoning their father to death with a bat and theorizes that the brothers possess a defective gene resulting in too much of the enzyme monoamine oxidase A. The enzyme's action is to destroy a neurotransmitter that keeps a person happy and calm.
This is one of many articles describing the search for a Murder Gene.
In a world where government propaganda and modern science makes genetic code out to be deterministic--behaviors like entrepreneurship, sexual orientation, and Murder have all been identified. A universal holocaust is in motion to eliminate "The Code," the gene for murder, and 9-year-old Kyle and his father Jay are torn apart when Jay is found carrying the murder gene.
As father struggles for survival within the walls of Murderer City to someday-somehow see his son again, Kyle must fight for his own freedom when he is caught in the psychological experimentation of a scientist bent on disproving The Code.
MURDER GENES combines cutting-edge scientific theories with real questions about free choice, ethics, and morality, putting it all on a plate of sick and twisted for the reader to enjoy.
From the Author
Murder Genes is by far the most horrific, gruesome, and controversial piece I've ever written. It is often described as a mix of Battle Royale, Divergent, and Hunger Games.
Even so, the book at its core is a story about father and son who must decide if survival is worth the sacrifice of character, morality, and soul.
