Cantor, a paleontologist, and Kumiko, a geneticist, team up with a quantum computer genius to reverse engineer dinosaurs from birds, planning to learn how dinosaurs behaved millions of years ago. But a ruthless oligarch arranges for changes in the bird genes that result in large and dangerous predators - the kind his wealthy clients can show off. After the growing raptors are moved from California to a ranch in New Mexico, Cantor and Kumiko believe the dinosaurs will thrive. But will they?
This is the story of scientists' desire for knowledge versus greedy profiteers. Of humans versus the deadliest of predators. Of families versus an increasing human and nonhuman menace. Of how an underdog becomes a key player in this life-or-death struggle.
Bonus illustrations bring home this dramatic experience for the reader.
