A sensational thriller from the international bestselling and multi-award winning star of SF combines a savage man-hunt with speculation on the dangers of genetic engineering.

Carl Marsalis, is a traitor to his kind, a remorseless bringer of death and judgement, a genetic freak and an unwelcome reminder of all that is dark in the human psyche. And right now he’s beyond his UN employers’ jurisdiction, banged up in a Florida jail for financing an illegal abortion. So when an ex-NYPD detective and her corporate backers come calling with a job offer and a get out of jail free card, Marsalis cuts a deal on the spot.

The Thirteens are genetically engineered alpha males, designed and trained to fight the 21st century’s final conflicts. But men bred in the bone to fight are dangerous to have around in peacetime, and the world has rejected them. Many have taken the one-way ticket into voluntary exile on Mars, but now one has returned. Somehow, he survived an illegal journey back to Earth, and a series of brutal slayings has erupted across America in his wake. Someone has to find out what he wants and stop him. And as the world’s only freelance Thirteen hunter, Marsalis just aced the job interview.

And so begins a frenetic man-hunt and a search for the truth about what was really done with the world’s last soldiers.

Thirteen is an unstoppable SF thriller, but it is also a novel about prejudice, monsters and the horrific ramifications of playing with our genetic blue-print.
