Missing Genes chronicles the rise and fall of Dieter von Murren, a businessman who achieves everything and then in a moment of madness loses all that he has ever worked for. But as Charles Darwin once wrote: It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change. Through cunning and craft Dieter responds and adapts to his spectacular downfall to create a new life. Missing Genes with its twists and turns introduces you to many characters that you will love to hate. Many of these characters are indeed missing vital genes. Some are merely eccentric, others utterly wicked. The tale mainly revolves around the attractive Swiss city of Basel with all its ancient traditions. But even here danger and wickedness lurk in the darkness.
