Dr. Paul Von Nieuwenhuyse has never been afraid of the law. Proudly unassimilated, he’s infamous for taking the government to court—and winning. But the law is changing, and it’s not the only enemy. When his son Nic betrays him, Paul loses custody of his daughter and finds himself on the wrong end of a restraining order. Enraged, he hacks into Nic’s database—and discovers the wicked project his son is developing on Mars. Faced with the end of the world, Paul realizes there is only one way to save both his son and Earth from destruction: by creating the antidote to the perfect superweapon.
