Opis

What if the Fountain of Youth fell into the wrong hands? Researcher Ted Wirth and his team of scientists discover a hormone (PHF) that greatly extends the lives of lab mice. The National Institute of Aging Research (NIAR), a government agency, hijacks their research and their mice. The team is told to "forget" the project and never disclose it, under threat of dismissal or worse. A NAIR experiment at a secret facility confirms that PHF can turn back the clock. President LLoyd L. Lochness sees all sorts of possibilities for PHF. There's one huge catch, which doesn't stop Lochness and his minions from concocting a sinister conspiracy. Two mysterious incidents launch the government's plot. Ted and his boss, Heather Lindholm, suspect a sordid subterfuge. Blogger Carlos Valencia and his computer genius son, Peter, poke holes in the official story. When the NIAR asks for help from Ted, Heather, and the scientists, the team plays a dangerous game. Will the conspirators meet their outrageous demand? Robert Gore's dark new satire skewers government, corruption, war, and other idiocies.
