How much humanity would you trade for survival? Shizuka Umino, 14, controls his own heartbeat. He has to—laughter triggers tachycardia, stress causes arrhythmia, and joy could kill him. He's the only survivor of telomerase control trials, adapted to conditions no human should endure. Dr. Yuna Shirasaki wasn't supposed to find him. The data was deleted. The project was classified. But someone inside wants the truth exposed. The cost of living forever isn't money. It's everything that makes life worth living. A hard science fiction thriller about the price of immortality.
