Thirty-six-year-old Dr. Kathleen Sainsbury is founder and CEO of a biotech startup company on the verge of one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs in history: a gene therapy that will extend human life by hundreds of years. When a mysterious phone message reveals the horrific truth about the deaths of her parents three decades earlier, Kathleen's life takes an unexpected turn. The caller - an antiques dealer named Dr. Hakeem Abdul Sargon - reveals that Kathleen's archeologist parents were brutally murdered while excavating beneath an ancient temple in the biblical city of Shuruppak in southern Iraq. The birthplace of Noah.
When Sargon turns up dead the next day, Kathleen is suddenly thrust into a swirling mystery involving the U.S. government, the Book of Genesis, and a shadowy organization called the "Olam Foundation." Meanwhile, a ruthless ex-CIA assassin is watching her every move, as is FBI agent Anthony Wills, who suspects (correctly) that Kathleen knows more than she's telling.
As Kathleen uncovers the true nature of her parents' research - and why they were silenced - powerful forces vie to steal or destroy her hard-won knowledge by any means necessary. The choices Kathleen must make will test her faith in science and understanding of religion - as the future of all humanity hangs in the balance.
