Gus Meier came to Atlanta for a normal life-to study engineering at Georgia Tech, then return to Switzerland. But on the morning after his graduation, his grandfather revealed "The Assignment"-a clandestine family project rooted in research stolen from Nazi Germany, kept in Atlanta. For eight years now, Gus has worked in secret at the Georgia Tech Research Institute, where America's brightest minds conduct research the government can't officially acknowledge, decoding cryptic notes about electrical frequencies and cancer-fighting enzymes.

Gus Meier came to Atlanta for a normal life-to study engineering at Georgia Tech, then return to Switzerland. But on the morning after his graduation, his grandfather revealed "The Assignment"-a clandestine family project rooted in research stolen from Nazi Germany, kept in Atlanta. For eight years now, Gus has worked in secret at the Georgia Tech Research Institute, where America's brightest minds conduct research the government can't officially acknowledge, decoding cryptic notes about electrical frequencies and cancer-fighting enzymes. He's done the impossible: created a device that can stop cancer without drugs, surgery, or radiation. But when Gus and his partner Christian Lawler try to retrieve data proving their biofeedback device works, they're expelled from Emory Hospital on trumped-up charges. Forty-five of their devices have vanished, yet suddenly, a whistleblower at Emory floods social media with miraculous recoveries from cancer that Dr. Marco Tanzilla, Dr. George Slayton Jr., and Dr. Clair Pogue can't explain. Are they covering up, or being set up? Someone is desperate to bury the truth. The conspiracy runs deeper than Gus imagined. Pharmaceutical giants, hospital administrators, and government officials have built trillion-dollar empires on human suffering. They've suppressed cancer cures before-and killed the researchers who created them. Fifteen years ago, they murdered Gus's father with a yacht bomb when he got too close to the same breakthrough. Now they're coming for the son. As corporate assassins hunt for the source of the miraculous outcomes, Gus races to complete a new version of his device-a sensor mat that could be installed in every hospital bed in America by the unsuspecting Joint Commission. JCO wants to buy ten thousand units immediately for an acceptable medical issue, providing Gus with the large-scale covert research project to test his latest Trojan Horse software-for publication. Caught between FBI protection and international killers, between his growing love for Italian fashion designer Gina Marchitello and his duty to humanity, Gus must navigate surveillance operations, media manipulation, and family secrets that span four generations. His uncle Henry, an economist at the Federal Reserve Bank, warns that curing cancer could collapse the world economy. Conspirators offer him wealth beyond measure to walk away. His adopted mother begs him to flee to safety. But Gus has seen too much suffering to quit now. In hospital lobbies filled with dying patients, in the haunted eyes of a young Georgia fan in a wheelchair, in the desperation of families bankrupted by medical bills-he knows what's at stake, and he's in love. What began with a Jewish engineer's desperate gamble as WWII erupted has become something far more dangerous than Dr. David Primack ever imagined. Gus kept his research alive, facing a terrifying possibility: completing The Assignment may stop cancer and start the next world war.
