The Genesis Conspiracy: Silicon Valley's Biohacker Underground

Hacker Anthology

In a Silicon Valley on the cusp of a biotech revolution, Nobel laureate Shinzo Yamane is hailed as the father of cellular rejuvenation—until a digital leak reveals his groundbreaking iPS cell technology is fueling a clandestine market for human clones and engineered superhumans. Haunted by the memory of his father’s incurable disease and the unintended consequences of his own ambition, Yamane is thrust into a high-stakes race against the SynBio Collective, a shadowy cartel of venture capitalists, rogue scientists, and political fixers eager to monetize the next leap in human evolution. As the line blurs between medical miracle and moral catastrophe, Yamane’s legacy—and humanity’s future—hang in the balance. To stop the commodification and weaponization of his life’s work, Yamane forges an uneasy alliance with Nila Udara, a fearless bioethicist and investigative journalist whose relentless pursuit of truth exposes the dark web of global biotech corruption. Together, they navigate a treacherous landscape of black market labs, government cover-ups, and desperate patients seduced by the promise of youth or power. But the greatest threat may come from within: Kenji Takada, Yamane’s own protégé, coerced into betraying the mentor he once idolized. As the SynBio Collective tightens its grip and the first generation of designer humans looms, Yamane, Nila, and Kenji must confront impossible choices—risking their reputations, their lives, and the very soul of science to prevent a new era where humanity’s boundaries are rewritten by those with the deepest pockets.
