Dead Drift: - a winding river mystery
DEAD DRIFT
The new field of bio-nanotechnology had sparked world-wide excitement, not only among the pharma giants but also within governments. The potential benefits of the new technology were enormous, but in the wrong hands so were the risks.
Project Gemini was not going smoothly. At first it had been just little things, but far too many of them. Nobody gets that much bad luck without there being a root cause. Someone - someone who shouldn’t have - knew that Gemini existed. That in itself was a major treat to Britain’s biosecurity.
Stephenson had argued that if Gemini’s existence and its objectives were publicised, there would be overwhelming public support for what they were trying to do – just as work to produce a vaccine against Covid-19 had secured wholesale public support. He had been listened to politely by closed minds that were already made up.
And when the assassinations begin, Stephenson discovers - the hard way - that he has become the prime target...
