Synopsis

Adam Reid: "I said I wouldn't hurt you, Spencer; but some things are so much more important than the truth." Journalist Spencer Beck is looking for the big one. He's grinding out a living in London when he is contacted by Simon, a shadowy character who informs him that the biotechnology billionaire Adam Reid, is not what he appears to be. Adam's parents died in a murder-suicide nine years ago in New York. The young man has since rocked the world of science but was he involved in their deaths? And what other, deeper secrets lie buried in the man's past... Not science fiction, this is a not-quite-science-fact book along the lines of those so memorably penned by Michael Crichton and others. PAYBACK explores what might be - and what so nearly is - in the world of science. What we create in haste - and more importantly who we create in haste - we may live to fear at our leisure...
