In 2025, sci­ence is unlock­ing the key to immor­tal­i­ty, draw­ing Israel’s Mossad spy agency into the dead­ly glob­al strug­gle to con­trol it. It’s hard­ly news when an octo­ge­nar­i­an sci­en­tist dying of can­cer dis­ap­pears from a local hos­pice, but when Kansas City Star reporter Rich Aza­di­an begins to dig, he dis­cov­ers that oth­er elder­ly sci­en­tists around the world have also van­ished — all ter­mi­nal­ly ill, Jew­ish, and receiv­ing the same exper­i­men­tal can­cer treat­ment. His inves­ti­ga­tion leads him to the reclu­sive Noam Heller, a bril­liant researcher explor­ing rev­o­lu­tion­ary stem cell treat­ments to reverse-age can­cer and oth­er cells and promis­ing a genet­ic foun­tain of youth.

But when Heller is mur­dered and his lab destroyed, Rich and his girl­friend, Anto­nia, become tar­gets them­selves. With the author­i­ties blind to the big pic­ture, he must take mat­ters into his own hands to sur­vive and stop the killing. His only hope is to infil­trate the vast and lethal race between cut­throat cor­po­ra­tions, intel­li­gence ser­vices, rogue sci­en­tists, and a mys­te­ri­ous inter­na­tion­al orga­ni­za­tion to con­trol the new tech­nolo­gies — and per­haps the secret of life itself.
