Told in sweeping, cinematic chapters, the novel moves from the intimate horror of the Hiroshima bombing to the sterile maternity wards of classified U.S. and Soviet facilities. It follows a select group of engineered children, born to lead a post-apocalyptic future - if they are ever needed. But can engineered virtue and brilliance triumph over mankind's darker instincts? With morally complex characters, meticulously researched political dialogue and deeply human emotional arcs, Genesis Revisited poses urgent questions about war, ethics, science, and the fragility of our civilization. It is an ambitious, thought-provoking, action-packed and emotionally resonant manuscript that weaves historical realism with speculative urgency. It deftly uses real-world figures and plausible geopolitical frameworks to build a chillingly credible alternate history. It succeeds not only in engaging the intellect but also in stirring the conscience. The premise - secret cooperation between Cold War adversaries to secure humanity's future through genetic intervention - is original, cinematic, and thematically rich. The execution reflects deep research and a command of historical voice and detail. A covert alliance between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev to preserve humanity through genetic enhancement offers the last hope for survival - if their plan can outpace humanity's own thirst for destruction.
