El doctor Daniel Lowell y su asistente (y amante) Stephanie son científicos que investigan en el campo de la biotecnología celular. Están desarrollando una posible cura para enfermedades como Alzeihmer, Parkinson o diabetes. La investigación se basa en transplantar células sanas para alterar el ADN de las células enfermas. Los experimentos que realizan con ratones dan muchas esperanzas de éxito y el próximo paso es experimentar con humanos.
El trabajo de Lowell se ve totalmente paralizado y la empresa que le financia retirará todos los fondos si la ley se aprueba. Estará arruinado. Pero de repente, el senador Ashley le cita en secreto para confesarle que él sufre de Parkinson, lo cual implica el final de su carrera política. Quiere probar el nuevo tratamiento de Lowell y, si funciona, promete apoyar su investigación. Ashley también le hace una exigencia inesperada: las células que usen para el transplante han de proceder de la Sábana Santa. Conseguir unos fragmentos de hilo del sudario será toda una aventura y un fascinante argumento secundario.

Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2007
When I got this copy, it was in Spanish. I don't recall reading that it was in Spanish when I ordered it so I'm not sure where the mistake lies. The Title I was looking at and ordered from on the site was in English so I was very surprised when it arrived and it was in Spanish. So, I just shook my head and tossed it! However, WAS IT SUPPOSED TO BE IN SPANISH??? It would be nice to know that I need to be aware that you have books in Spanish and I need to make sure the one I am ordering is in English.
