THE CURE for CANCER . . . is it really the cure for death? Roll that one around for a minute until you get your arms around the ramifications of those four words. Doctor Samantha Goldinger is lured to its secrets, has found a way to turn back not only the hands of time and illness, but aging and death as well. The cure is called Elixinol Twenty-One, a serum that has the power to heal . . . . with deadly results. Eternity in a vial, ageless and forever but with a twist that is so horrific that Samantha must choose; perpetual but distorted life or inevitable death. How many are worth the cure? One? Ten? A dozen? A hundred? Three hundred? A thousand? Are a thousand deaths worth it? How many deaths make one life worth the terrible cost? When does the cure outweigh the risks? When do the ends justify the means? They want it. They will kill for it. They have been hunting and killing for the secrets of Elixinol Twenty-One for hundreds of years, guarding the methods and madness that keep them alive, keep them one step behind the cure for aging and every disease known to man. If they succeed the result would be catastrophic: unguarded regeneration and overpopulation that could destroy all mankind in a matter of decades. Running for survival and the safety of her family, Samantha must discard the life she knew in order to stop them. She crosses the line from scientist to victim, a victim of Elixinol Twenty-One and those that will stop at nothing to take it from her. She does the only thing she can do. It becomes the very cure that will be her savior and her demise. Collin Jurssic is a reporter for the Los Angeles Post, where he works with Samantha's ex husband Gregory. He did a human interest story on the good doctor that declared war on Cancer with a capital C. Now everyone connected with her laboratory is dead, Doctor Goldinger's reputation is in shambles, she's on the run and running out of time. Collin wants to know why. He's on her trail, trying to get a handle on what she's up to when her car explodes. Like a scene right out of a horror movie that blast plunges Collin right into the thick of her last days, her very last moments. Collin is crushed. And then the revelation: Is Samantha really dead? Could she still be alive? Is it possible that she was not in the car? Collin thinks so and sets out to prove his theory. Trusting no one, seeing false starts and suspicious behavior from all those around him, he is plunged into the horror that is Elixinol Twenty-One. The pleasant surprise? Through all of the death and destruction, Collin finds love, a gift that is Samantha Goldinger, who has died a thousand deaths. |

"Where was Samantha, they wanted to know? Who was she, after all, this woman who ignited Armageddon? They didn’t care, really. They wanted to know what Collin had to say. It was his fifteen minutes of fame." From A Thousand Deaths This story explores the possibility that the cure for Cancer may be more dangerous than the disease iteself- at least for those in the research industy! Who benefits? Who loses? Who cares enough to do anything at all to make sure it never happens? Or to make sure that they get it first? Were a cure to be found, entire industries would collapse! Consider this . . . The reversal of the aging process might seem a golden fleece for the cosmetic industry but . . . It might also be a disaster of mega-proportions for the medical, pharmaceutical or insurance industry! Or would it? What if . . . The cure for Cancer was found? What if . . . The cure for aging was found? What if . . . The cure for death was found? What if . . . . Something went terribly wrong? |
