Blue Magic, the latest designer drug linked to a rash of overdoses, might explain the needle mark on the arm of a young woman found dead in her Kansas City apartment. But when star reporter Rich Azadian digs deeper, the clues point to a far more explosive story: MaryLee Stock was a special protege of evangelical megapastor and power broker Cobalt Becker, who is poised to deliver his followers and the presidency to a firebrand right-wing senator in the next election. When Azadian sets out to prove that MaryLee's death was no accident and she may have been carrying Becker's genetically enhanced baby, the stakes become life itself. In 2023 America - bankrupt, violently divided by the culture wars, and beholden to archrival China - the rules of the game are complicated. With the danger mounting, the dead bodies of young women piling up, Chinese agents circling, and the US Department of National Competitiveness moving in to quash his investigation, Azadian's only option is to go rogue, assemble a team of brilliant misfits like himself, and begin the fight of his life to find out who is killing these women and why, and if any others like them may still be alive.

This audiobook was interesting and entertaining. It also shone a spotlight on the many ethical and religious issues surrounding genetic and stem cell therapy. The positive and negative aspects of genetic sciences are highlighted, as well as the ease that can used to justify whatever side of the debate that an individual might prefer.

Great book

The narrator's voices are awful. All of them. I could barely finish the story because I spent so much time cringing at the audio. Also, I was going to vomit if I heard, "baby" one more time. No one calls their SO baby so much.

Would not recommend

the story in general is pretty good, but I feel like it's lacking something in the end. the narrator does a good job, but at times there's not that much distinction between the characters. but still worth a 4 overall, especially if you can pick this up from the audible plus catalogue.

lacking something

The story is intriguing. the narration did not do it justice. all men in power had the same low pitch , and you will get a shot of the worst British accent ever attempted by an American.

Might read better as a book than audio
