Dr. Jonathan Morrison saves his son’s life with a kitchen knife tracheotomy , but finally realizes he has been in denial about the true cause of his son’s worsening symptoms.
When he is contacted by Advanced Genomic Research, their promise of creating a revolutionary new treatment for his son seems too good to be true.
And there is a catch. He is faced with an impossible choice – abandon a possible cure for his son, or embrace an ethical compromise that will change him forever. His painful journey unearths a shocking revelation that will lead to either redemption or damnation….and the demise of countless unsuspecting victims, including everyone he loves.
The Greater Good examines the potential for nefarious use of stolen genetic information, and the ways these practices could destroy lives and compromise our freedoms.
"The Greater Good is a superb novel: a classic page-turner about the brave new world of genetics. In taut and supple prose, Frank Sapienza has masterfully created a cast of vivid characters and a fast-paced plot with one diabolical twist after another. It's medical thriller with high stakes - a doctor desperate to save his son's life, a mysterious company with global ambitions - that keeps you absorbed in one man's personal struggles as it illuminates the social challenges we all face from DNA technology. What a literary debut!"
