A Genetic Aberration Novel

“Never be afraid to lie about a product.”

Liz Cleaver, the heiress to a marijuana empire, is on a mission to cover her freewheeling spending while seemingly looking for a budget-friendly dental solution for her foundation's clinics. Meanwhile, Werner Brandt, TeeGentics beleaguered CEO, is struggling to keep his company afloat as the company’s genetically created teeth keep dying in the lab. He is forced to navigate around hazards; a bossy misanthropic investor; an inept project manager; two Klingon culture fans; and last, but not least, Werner’s attractive administrative assistant. As tensions rise and investors grow increasingly impatient, there is plenty of distraction—from love affairs, political maneuvering, FBI investigations and side effects ranging from bizarre to disastrous, the story takes you on a riotous journey through the unpredictable world of experimenting with genetics for profit.

"Goldstein’s riotous novel about a wacky biotech startup runs the gamut from plausible to outlandish, with all the action happening at a frenetic pace." — Kirkus Reviews
