Book Description
What begins as an investigation into the brutal murder of a young woman has Florida agent McAndrew "Cal" Calumet recognizing that the murder bears connections to previous unsolved murders going back years. The patterns of the murders are specific and unmistakable, and they lead Cal to an elite social club called Gold Horizon where the ultra-rich hide their activities from the eyes of the authorities by any means possible, including murder. What Cal comes to learn is that Gold Horizon is a front for an organization working to manipulate the natural processes that separate life from death, for the benefit of people who view themselves as so superior that they dare to control the very structure of everything recognizable as human. Soon Cal is in a struggle not only to unmask the murderers of several women but to save his own life.
