This is the story of the fountain of youth. When Kenji Hiroshige discovers a formula that will keep people youthful and healthy for several thousand years, he tells the world he will not divulge his secret until every gun, tank, battleship, and bomb hasbeen destroyed. When the world is free of weapons, everyone can live forever. And then he goes into hiding. Before he disappears, his son Matt Reece is exposed to the formula. Kenji takes Matt Reece on the run with him, but as they struggle to elude both government agencies and corporations who will do anything to profit from Kenji's discovery, Matt Reece learns that world peace might not be his father's only goal. But what can a young man who's barely stepped foot off his isolated ranch do in the face of something so sinister? This is the story of human greed and the lust for violence. It's the story of a world on the brink of destruction, but it's also a tale of one young man who finds in himself the will, courage, and compassion to stand against the darkness-both outside and within himself. This is a story of hope.
Autorenporträt
Alan Chin enjoyed a twenty-year career, working his way from computer programmer to Director of Software Engineering, but he lost interest in computer science when he began writing fiction. He walked away from corporate America in 1999, and since then has traveled to over fifty countries, scuba dived the Great Barrier Reef, tracked black rhino in the Serengeti, walked the five-hundred-and-fifty-mile Camino de Santiago across Spain, and dined in most of the capitals of Europe and Asia. Oh yes, and he's published nine gay-themed novels and two screenplays. In 2007, QBliss magazine awarded their Pride in Literature award to Alan for his debut novel, Island Song. In 2010, Alan's novel The Lonely War swept the Rainbow Literary Awards, taking top honors in four categories: Best Fiction, Best Historical, Best Characters, and Best Setting. A year later, the Rainbow Literary Awards granted Alan's third novel, Match Maker, the Best Contemporary Fiction award. Alan's novel The Plain of Bitter Honey was a finalist in the 2013 Foreword Reviews Book of the Year awards. Alan currently spends half of the year traveling the globe and the other half writing at his home in Palm Springs, California.
