About this listen
When a cryptic note sends former FBI agent turned wealth advisor David Blum on a journey to discover the truth behind his father’s recent death, all clues point to Otto Feldmann, a world-renowned professor of genetics, with secrets to hide. Further digging leads Blum to Kay Westfield, a bank executive who once witnessed a bizarre explosion on Feldmann’s experimental farm.
As Blum and Westfield team up to unravel the labyrinth of funding behind the professor’s research center, a picture emerges of a monstrous plot by a shadowy international think tank to infect millions of people. All the while, Feldmann’s research assistant, a math prodigy with past ties to a violent, white-supremacist movement, is busy optimizing the virus’s distribution in order to fulfill THE PANGAEA SOLUTION.
An intricate plot that weaves together thrilling action, science, religion, math, international banking, romance, and contemporary social issues. Part Ian Fleming, part Michael Crichton, part Dan Brown.

Story
The year is 2164. Humanity has slipped the surly bonds of its golden sun, and prospers as it finds a way across the stars. A new era of exploration dawns, its citizens asking the question eagerly: “Is there anyone out there?” Now, the answer comes suddenly and violently, a surprise attack on a peaceful colony. Deadly conflict, long forgotten by the governments of Man, makes itself known once more. New enemies emerge from the void: children of war, heirs to its terror and splendor. But this foe too has questions to answer, faced as it is with a civilization previously unimagined.

Story
Prince, a charismatic (and lackluster) real-estate agent with a complicated past, gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make it to the literal top of the business—fly an advanced spaceship known as “The Kepler” to an alien planet, where he will resume his career as an intergalactic realtor—selling luxury homes to the ultra-rich and live like the king he always knew he was. But when the plan falls short, and Prince discovers the dark forces manipulating his life on Matlitodus, he finds himself in the middle of an intergalactic scheme.
