The Millicent Factor Lior Samson

Millicent Geller is a field biologist who teaches middle-school science in Massachusetts. The wife of Dr. Rosen David, a research biologist who does no research, her life is thrown into dangerous disorder when he discovers unpublished research with world-shaking implications. They quickly become entangled with an invisible international network that will stop at nothing to keep the research secret and to limit its benefits to a select inner circle that includes corporate executives and sybaritic billionaires along with the brutal and long-lived African dictator Dr. Edgar Jabari Mbutsu. The diminutive Millicent Geller becomes an unlikely lone crusader, prepared to go all in and determined to expose the secret society that calls itself The Club. She is forced to face fundamental questions about her own survival and the collective good. Her efforts will draw former student and erstwhile journalist Clinton Rodrigues to the cause - with deadly consequences. From California's Central Valley to the coast of West Africa and the woods of Northern Maine, his pursuit of a story will teach him and his students unexpected lessons.
