Would you sell your life to save another?

War vet Damon Jones is a lowly bodyguard for the biotech billionaire who revolutionized life extension. But at least he’s got a job, unlike most, and won’t have to sell his life to support his family. Sure, they’re poor, but he’s got death insurance, and a roof over his head. Life is livable...

But then Damon’s daughter is kidnapped, and sold for parts. Overnight, his life (and belief in the system his company perpetuates) shatters. When the rich bastards get off scot-free, Damon’s wife commits suicide, and he snaps.

Someone is going to pay. The only question, how to kill the heartless elites who use the poor like mindless livestock and whose security rivals most heads of state. And what happens to the senator who is fighting to abolish life extension?

Death Donor is a speculative fiction technothriller by renowned futurist and sci-fi author, Matt Ward, that features espionage, political drama, and fast-paced adventure in the dark dystopian world of synthetic biology. If you like Michael Crichton, Daniel Suarez, or Neal Stephenson, or loved dystopian classics like the Handmaid’s Tale, Brave New World, and Ready Player One, you’ll love this page-turning science fiction thrilller.



ps. if you like the sound of this, i have other books i'm looking for feedback on and giving away on my site: https://mattwardwrites.com
