The Genius Gene

On June 30, 2011, in Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Paranormal - Fiction, by Howard Birnberg

Einstein, Newton, DaVinci. The names are synonymous with genius; however, is genius nurtured or does nature provide it? In the fictional scientific thriller, The Genius Gene, young geneticist Catherine Fox has the surprising answer. She has discovered a source of genius in our gene. Nobel-Prize winning geneticist, Stephen Yates, her former mentor and spurned lover would do anything to obtain her confidential research. Backed by greedy pharmaceutical companies, Yates has become corrupt. The time is the mid-21st century and Yates has established clinics to engineer the genius gene into the unborn children of wealthy parents. Catherine calls these offspring, ‘Frankenstein children’ and fears the creation of a master race. Her research may make this possible and she struggles to prevent Yates from learning the workings of the genius gene. Unknown to Catherine, there are other secrets to protect. On the eve of crucial hearings on legalizing Yates’ process, he vanishes and Catherine becomes a suspect in his disappearance.
