An exciting future thriller from nationally best‑selling author of the Orphan's Legacy science fiction saga. A face‑off with killers in order to guard a secret that could change humanity forever.
LIVE FOREVER—OR DIE TRYING
When the world’s richest man is the victim of a car bomb and literally blown off the Golden Gate Bridge the attack is attributed to terrorists and the world moves on. But some still wonder. Was Manuel Colibri targeted because, as Silicon Valley rumor has it, he was about to make the dream that people alive today can live to be one thousand come true?
Two people are pursuing the truth. Tech journalist Kate Boyle and recovering Iraq war veteran Ben Shepard race through the Bay Area chasing the only clues the reclusive Colibri left behind. They discover not only each other but a cosmic secret that can change human history—and may cost them their lives.

Could not finishI wanted to like this book, as it is set in the near future, no spaceships or teleporters,just research into longevity. The cover was attractive, James Bond-ish, but then the main villain increasingly was reveled as... the Catholic Church! (or some other organization using the same name which in this world has no pope, no council of bishops, just the archbishop of San Francisco acting autonomously.) Some intrepid soul might be able to finish this screed, I moved on to better books.
