Alex considered his circumstances. It seemed his only option was to
disappear. If he didn't do so voluntarily, it appeared that there
were powers that would make him do so involuntarily. So begins Soul
searching. A tightly crafted, frighteningly plausible thriller
about controversial science, medical phenomena, tough moral choices
and spiritual integrity. Soul searching is very visual, wonderfully
cinematic storytelling presented through the engaging interactions
of a cast of unique and involving characters moving through both
familiar and exotic landscapes. The philosopher's stone. The elixir
of life. The quest for immortality. What if there was some degree
of truth embedded in these concepts? What if this piece of fiction,
like so many others, turns out to be less an exercise in
imagination and more one of extrapolation? Alex is an intellectual
man of faith, a devoted husband and an attentive father, struggling
to balance his passions for his chosen field of study and his Lord.
Caught in a relentless net of political controls and an expanding
scientific moral vacuum, Alex discovers that some things are not as
black and white as he might like, and that not everyone who is a
friend today will be a friend tomorrow. Whilst this is a fictional
account, the basic scientific principles and knowledge leading to
the story's remarkable conclusion are all too real. Indeed, this
last decade following the conception of the book has seen rapid
advances in molecular biology, DNA sequencing, bio-terrorism and
the study of near-death experiences, which only serve to increase
the credibility of the underlying rationale. And if it puts your
immortality outside of your own control, wouldn't you want to know?
Wouldn't you want to retake control? If so, read on. If
not-remember, you were warned.
