At the center of the scientific world, Professor Dr. Corhime stands on the brink of a breakthrough that holds the promise of changing humankind. For years, he has toiled at the craft of science, pouring his very essence into the work of a revolutionary recombinant DNA composite. That so-called "miracle medicine" awaits only a final series of tests before it can be unleashed to alter the very contours of our existence. His hope? To use that discovery to deliver us all to a glorious salvation. But bad guys and shadowy figures move through his world.
Dr. Corhime is unaware that someone in his inner circle is plotting against him. His rival, the wily Dr. Waddle, seeks to undercut his research by any means necessary. A treacherous tale unfolds as Waddle, using the cover of darkness, tries to defeat the esteemed professor and his work.
While Dr. Corhime confronts ever-growing problems, an unknown figure appears, hidden behind a mask of mystery. This person has crossed a line, conducting experiments that no sane person would consider: secretly mixing human and animal DNA. And now the world's first human-animal hybrid lives and breathes—and is far from ordinary.

When the news of this creation breaks, society plunges into turmoil, wrestling with fear and wonder. Blinded by awe, the world turns to Dr. Corhime, and with the single-mindedness that characterizes a mob in action, it questions the very moral fiber of his research. Now in a race against time, the good professor has no choice but to defend not just his work but also his very self.
The text engages the reader with an exciting mix of ambition, betrayal, and the almost irresistible intersection of science and ethics. Will Professor Corhime find a way through the institutionalized deceit that threatens his creation's legacy? If this revolutionary discovery of his makes it to market, it could have a significant impact—most likely a beneficial one—on human genetics. Of course, like almost every big scientific breakthrough, it could also be used for harm. And that uncomfortable possibility—and an equally uncomfortable deliberation on what makes humans human—are the tragic implications of Corhime's work.
