In the year 2021, Jane Tokugawa leads a U.S. delegation from the
Centers for Disease Control to investigate a new retroviral gene
therapy approved in Iceland, a shining nation churning out Olympic
medalists, chess masters, and brilliant artists. As Tokugawa learns
more about the Hratthnif protocol from head scientist/founder Asdis
Luthersdottir, she begins to question the motives of some of her
delegation's members. Hratthnif ("fast knife") is curing diseases
and mental illness, changing lives for the better. But who controls
it? What are the limits? As the true mission of her delegation
becomes clear, Tokugawa makes a decision that will affect millions
of lives.
