The year is 2008. Violent crime has become a global epidemic, nowhere more so than in the United States. Everything from the death penalty to liberal reforms has failed. Nothing has been effective. Until now.

Project Conscience promises to be the solution. It is a bold attempt by a powerful group of scientists, politicians & senior law-enforcement personnel to use gene therapy to treat male criminals & cure violent crime. But among their number are those with a more sinister agenda, who would go further & turn the dream of Project Conscience into the nightmare of Crime Zero.

Luke Decker, a criminal psychologist disillusioned with the growing dependence on genetic science, is on the verge of resigning from the FBI when a death-row killer's whispered revelation threatens everything he believes in & catapults him into the heart of the conspiracy. Decker's only ally is Dr Kathy Kerr, an old flame & ideological adversary, & the geneticist behind the original Project Conscience.

Together they must put aside their differences to fight against a scheme so ruthless in intent & so vast in scope that it will irrevocably change the evolution of mankind itself.

Crime Zero is a terrifyingly credible thriller based on technological developments that are already with us. At its core is the story of one man's desperate fight for self-determination & free will in a world where such qualities are in danger of imminent extinction...
