Publisher's Synopsis
In this book, the Jerry and Hassan series continues, featuring Blake Bradley, wife of Hassan Cummings, and Blake's pursuit of a Doctor's Degree in Bionic Engineering. After weeks of unsuccessful searching for a suitable subject for her doctoral project involving the creation of an advanced, smart prosthesis, Blake, while on a sailing vacation with friends, hears of a potential candidate who has recently lost his right arm. Realizing that the candidate meets the study's requirements of youth, recent limb loss, willingness to participate in the project, and demonstrates the will to undergo the rigors of the program for an extended period, she recruits him, and he moves him to the laboratory in Miami where the study will take place. When the study begins, her subject's father is suddenly murdered as a result of his criminal involvement. This plunges the candidate, his family, Blake, and the Cunningham family in the resultant fallout from the ongoing criminal activity.
