Krispr

What she knew for sure—her technology was truly revolutionary. It had extraordinary promise for curing human disease, maybe even Alzheimer’s. It also had the potential for unrestrainable, diabolical abuse. It could never get into the hands of her more powerful adversaries. It should be destroyed. But doing what’s right isn’t always easy…especially when it comes to the ones you love. Aliya McKenna has it all…beauty, brains, grit. When a world-renowned scientist asks her to collaborate, she jumps at the chance. Faced with precarious choices, her gambles become perilous when she does the wrong things for the right reasons and learns a valuable lesson along the way: just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.
