'You're going to be on your own, Peter, and I need to know that you're prepared. You must realise this is a battle. A battle of nature and science, good and evil. And your grandfather will do everything in his power to win you over.'The gripping story of two young people rebelling against a world which values immortality over happiness - companion to 'The Declaration'.

Peter must feign a reconciliation with his grandfather, Richard Pincent, one of the most powerful men on the planet, whose company is chasing the holy grail of modern science - a drug which will reverse ageing and make people look young again.
