The Natural Order (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781645758099)

One of the world's top scientists, Nigel Mitchell, is driven by a nagging fear: that life on Earth is a cosmic accident, a mistake the universe is trying to correct. This compels him to make the most of every day, dedicating himself to helping friends, family, and society. His research at the world's largest laboratory provides him the resources to pursue this goal, searching for signs of life in distant galaxies and striving to understand the universe's origins.

But a mistake in his lab threatens to destroy everything. Obsessed with enhancing life, Nigel now faces the possibility of destroying the planet. His search for a remedy takes him from the depths of the Earth to the surface of the Moon, all while wrestling with his fear of a cosmic mistake.

As the clock ticks down, and with the lives of his loved ones hanging in the balance, Nigel begins to suspect that the very error that threatens Earth might be the key to restoring the universe's natural order.
