Jacob Mesmer delivers

Great read, great pace. Mesmer develops his plot then delivers without getting lost. I'm not a big reader, but he manages to keep me involved.

create your own

Mesmer has done it again, written a suspenseful story with believable storyline and characters. The storyline is based on something that is entirely possible, genetic engineering, with the requisite evil people trying to line their own pockets at the expense of desperate people.
I appreciate the way Mesmer always wraps it all up at the end instead of leaving the reader in limbo, wondering about the final outcomes.

Another Mesmerizing Story From Jacob Mesmer

Forgive the pun, I couldn't resist :-) This tale was awesome! Don't want to spoil it for you so I'll just say that the author has presented us with timely ideas that seem plausible and horrific at the same time. An excellent book, I highly recommend.

Hated to come to the ending

Loved this book. Couldn't put it down, but do think you could have went farther with the story. Still would recommend to family and friends, thank you.
