A medical mystery ... and a threat from beyond the stars. For Jon and Marianna Knox, the birth of their daughter Persephone marks the happiest day of their lives. Until they learn that Persey is suffering from a rare but fatal condition called "triploidy." Her doctors are baffled, and with good reason-because the source of the little girl's genetic malfunction is not of this Earth. It lies out beyond the orbit of Saturn. And it's coming for all of us.

Autorenporträt
Bill DeSmedt's professional life thus far has been a superposition of orthogonal career paths - system designer/developer, artificial intelligence researcher/practitioner, management/technical consultant, ontologist/knowledge engineer, husband/father/lover, omnivorous reader with a soft spot for science fiction and science non-fiction, and now -saints preserve us! - technothriller author.The resulting sum over histories has spawned the Archon Sequence, consisting so far of the award-winning Singularity and Dualism, with Triploidy on the launch pad. Prior to these first forays into speculative fiction, Bill's writing credits have included an unconventional attempt to marry the fields of cognitive psychology and software system design.
