Arbor Vita: A New Leaf on Life

by Ashlee Mack

In a world where science has conquered aging, Arbor Vita promises humanity a future free from death’s grasp. But beneath the glossy veneer of eternal youth lies a hidden cost—one that investigative journalist Alexandra “Alex” Rogers is determined to uncover. Drawn into a dangerous web of corporate deception, underground resistance, and bioethical dilemmas, Alex and her team race across divided societies—from utopian cities to lawless black markets—pursuing the truth behind the so-called miracle drug. But as they dig deeper, they realize the stakes are greater than they ever imagined. Some secrets are worth dying for—will they survive long enough to expose them?

About the author

I’m an indie author who writes because I love it. I work on my own and learn as I go, and each book is something I put a lot of heart into. Well, maybe not my first book!

Most of my ideas come from traveling, being outside, cultural misunderstandings, or just paying attention to everyday life. When I am not writing, I am usually on a trail somewhere, enjoying a good cup of coffee, or with my dog.

I appreciate everyone who takes the time to read my work. Your support helps me keep going, and I’m truly thankful for it.

Very interesting story. I enjoyed both the story and the narration. I’d recommend it to my friends and family.

I listened to the first 3 chapters and realised I wasn't into this book, wasn't enjoying it at all. Maybe it gets better but it's not for me and I moved on.
