You want to live forever? Or at least 50 years longer than your projected lifespan?
Science might get excited about advances in gene therapy. Your health insurer might not be so keen. Dr Lorna Reid has discovered a miracle anti-ageing drug called NP3. She's experimenting on kids with progeria, an ageing disorder.
Trouble is, while Dr Lorna is trying to lengthen her patients' lives, someone else is hellbent on knocking them off. But the only scary bit is the writing.
"Turning away from her, he struck his own forehead. 'So I'm right!"'
Life, with or without miracle anti-ageing drugs, is too short to spend reading this sort of silliness.
