Episode 3 - Codex Chimera

CODEX: CHIMERA
Book Three of The Serpentine Ascension

The future conquered death. Humanity was archived, digitised, and preserved beyond the limits of the flesh.

Now someone wants to bring it all back.

When private investigator Graham Mercer uncovers a conspiracy hidden beneath one of the world's most powerful biotechnology corporations, he finds himself caught in a race against time. Missing people, illegal experiments, vanished consciousnesses and a secret order obsessed with human evolution all point toward a terrifying breakthrough that could change the future of civilisation forever.

As a young survivor struggles to retain her humanity and rival scientists push the boundaries of life itself, Mercer must descend into a hidden world of genetic manipulation, corporate secrecy and forbidden ambition. What begins as a desperate rescue mission soon reveals a far greater threat: a vision of humanity's next evolution that may erase everything that came before it.

Blending cyberpunk, biotech horror, conspiracy thriller and dark science fiction, CODEX: CHIMERA is a fast-paced journey into a future where immortality was only the beginning.

For readers of Richard K. Morgan, Blake Crouch, Alastair Reynolds and dystopian techno-thrillers filled with mystery, suspense and high-stakes science.
