Netex, an advanced research firm with more than one secret agenda, has developed a mind-altering headset technology which now poses a threat to all of humanity. The headset uses a mysterious sound wave called "Auditum" that can control the brain and even hurls users into a different dimension.

Staff scientist Jacob Cross has been deeply involved in developing this new headset and was lead to believe the technology would serve various medical applications. Now terrified that his invention will be used to enslave millions, Jacob sends himself through the dimensional portal. There, Jacob falls in love with the powerful yet ghostly Tamara, who warns him that the fate of both their worlds are now linked by a shared peril. Tamara's world has fallen prey to a monstrous adversary who now threatens to destroy Jacob's world as well.

Jacob awakens, only to find his real life turned upside down as he is caught in a murderous plot created by the CEO of Netex. His loyalties are quickly torn between the two linked dimensions, causing Jacob to question his own sanity and even his ability to know what is real-and what is not.

Although in nature the vast majority of polymers are condensation polymers, much publicity has been focused on functionalized vinyl polymers. Functional Condensation Polymers fulfills the need to explore these polymers which form an increasingly important and diverse foundation in the search for new materials in the twentyfirst century. Some of the advantages condensation polymers hold over vinyl polymers include offering different kinds of binding sites, their ability to be made biodegradable, and their different reactivities with various reagents under diverse reaction conditions. They also offer better tailoring of end-products, different tendencies (such as fiber formation), and different physical and chemical properties. Some of the main areas emphasized include dendrimers, control release of drugs, nanostructure materials, controlled biomedical recognition, and controllable electrolyte and electrical properties.

In the post-modern, automated world of 2025, the unstable nature of a deadly nerve agent is ordered to be destroyed at an Army facility base, but when a routine inspection goes haywire, the Army looks to CBER (Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research) for an explanation. Dr. Dean Anthony is a chemist at CBER and an expert in the field of gene therapy. He has everything a man could want; fame, fortune, a platinum car, and a five-story manor. He desires only one thing: a beautiful woman to share it all with. But most of all, he wants to shed the tragedy of his past; the cold-blooded murder of his parents more than two decades ago, when Dean and his brother fled from a ruthless cartel in Mexico. Mitchell Crane is a former security guard at a Hampton's nightclub. Audrey Chase is Mitchell's bride-to-be. Days before his wedding, she vanishes without a single clue. Determined to find her, Mitchell becomes an expert in the field of private investigation. But when Anthony's chopper makes an emergency landing in Atlantic City, he finds himself falling into the lost arms of a missing ghost, Audrey Chase. But he's falling harder than he thought. Now the cartel is on the loose after cheating a life sentence, and aided by the Italian Mafia, they're hot on the trail of the lost brothers. The chemist finds himself caught in the middle of a dangerous equation and he will have to risk everything to solve it. "A future crime saga wrapped in a technical thrill ride that reads at break-neck speed." -J.R. Graham
