In the not-so-distant future, organs can be re-grown from a handful
of stem cells. For patients who can afford the treatment and hang
on to life support for long enough, the prognosis is good. Even the
most complex organ of all can be reproduced in the lab with nearly
perfect accuracy. Nearly. Patients of brain regeneration face a
wide range of problems, from loss of motor functions or
intelligence to sociopathy. Spurred by personal tragedy, research
scientist William Dalal works feverishly to improve the lives of
those he has had a hand in saving. For every success, however,
there is a consequence, and eventually a question arises in his
mind: Are they worth it? His desire to help fades as he comes to
realize a shocking truth: the monsters he has created are taking
over. As Will walks a fine line between altruism and ambition,
acquaintances and events change the way in which he perceives the
world and the extent to which he is willing to compromise in order
to make his mark on it. As the situation escalates, he finds
himself dealing brain-enhancing drugs and developing life-altering
treatments. In their deliverance, he sees his own—but is he
deluding himself?
