Dr. Richard Draman watches his daughter's body age years in months, trapped by a rare genetic condition that medical science cannot touch. He works frantically in his lab, chasing dead ends and false hopes. Then a colleague's husband slips him classified research. The deceased scientist had been working on something extraordinary before her apparent suicide. The documents reveal discoveries that could rewrite biology itself and transform human understanding of aging. Draman sees a path to save his child. But powerful forces have been watching. Men with unlimited resources begin hunting him across the country. They will kill to protect the secrets he now possesses. Draman must stay alive long enough to unlock the cure, even as his daughter's time runs out and his pursuers close in.
