Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Catrina has already felt the pain life can brutally throw at you. Her father, once a brilliant neurosurgeon, is now crazed and delusional. He was using his daughter as a guinea pig, experimenting with DNA and gene alteration, searching for a breakthrough formula to create advanced human cloning. Catrina finally found the courage to run away from home, living the life of thievery to survive. She would eventually learn the shocking truths about her family while associating with some unlikely characters: Fernando Bently, the charismatic curator; Rocco Cooper, an ex-con locksmith; and Ziggy, an outspoken homeless person. Over time, Catrina experienced spine-chilling side effects from her father's unproven, careless experiments, changing her genetics, altering her thought patterns, but mostly, and inconceivably, it changed her appearance. Catrina and her best friend Michaela became inseparable, thick as thieves, unaware that their lives will be transformed from their passion for stealing to fighting evil. Their jolting discovery leaves them with no choice; however, evil breeds in many forms, and things are not always as they appear.This novel has two completely different endings for your enjoyment, two shocking conclusions you won't see coming.

À propos de l'auteur

I was only nine years old when I arrived from England with my parents and three sisters, unaware of the exciting journey ahead. From my early years in a one-room schoolhouse to this very day I have always loved anything creative. Life is all about the details. My love of music coaxed me to become a musician, songwriter and singer. My creative side allowed me to be an artist, photographer and a designer. Now, in retirement, I am a novelist, loving every syllable. I truly hope my love of writing will entertain, create thought and inspire.
