The fate of mankind may soon take a surprising turn when a new disease that turns its victims green before they die appears in a pristine mountain community. Suspecting biological terrorism, Major "Di" Johnson and her team quarantine that community and the nearby resort towns. The imminent arrival of summer tourists would spread the disease worldwide and doom the human species, one way or another. Major Johnson recruits David Tollner, a lustful but lost vacationing scientist. Their romance blossoms as they race to discover how to stem the strangest and most dangerous disease in history before it either dooms or transforms the human species. This is an astonishingly plausible story, based on current biomedical science and technology and the recent creation of synthetic cells.

I was born in Brooklyn NY and moved to East LA when I was 3. Realizing that a cosmic mistake had been made, I spent the years between then and now rectifying the error, eventually moving home to the Eastern Sierras. In the meantime I earned a doctorate, taught college, and published several college textbooks in biology, anatomy and physiology, and human physiology. My lab manual and textbook in human physiology have been the leaders since they were first published and are now in their thirteenth editions (McGraw-Hill). I always loved "what if" stories and have now written one: Becoming Green, my first novel. What if a new human species were engineered? This will probably happen, and that time may be coming sooner than we'd like. This is a hybrid work; part science fiction, part medical mystery, part thriller, part romance, and partly a homage to the mountains I love.
