The Lorel Experiment

Dr. Lorel partners with couples around the world to take humanity to the next level through the gift of genetically enhanced children with a sense of responsibility for their fellow man and the ability to take the long view in planning for the future. But people resent competing with ‘Lorels’ and when the philanthropic doctor is killed, his son, Damien Lorel, opts to dehumanize the products of the family business, Self-Evolved Limited.

Damien’s Sevolites serve mankind as ‘flesh robots’. It takes another Lorel, named Sandrine, to uncover Damien’s long term plans — but will she be too late?
