Synopsis-Two years after the global retro-viral outbreak known as “The Turning”, world governments take desperate measures to prevent a human civil world war from breaking out after large portions of the human race begin to mutate into old-fashioned human beings known as... Nephilim, beings with extraordinary magical powers but with a notorious reputation.
It was supposed to be a glorious time for the human race, a new stage in human evolution some said, but not everyone reacted well to the new blood that coursed through their veins. Many of the infected became abominations, instead of the enlightened beings the scientific communities expected. It was only a matter of time before all Nephilim were rejected by the majority of humans who still remained within society.
To make matters worse, malevolent spirits that seek to rejoin the land of the living are drawn to the Nephilim like beacons, putting any humans nearby in constant danger. Because of this, a young Nephilim man named Charlie decides to live life in isolation, choosing to lock himself away from the world that he threatens. No longer able to relate to his human wife, Elena, Charlie finds his marriage slowly slipping away along with his sanity, and after realizing he can no longer cope with the dark spirits that stalk him, as well as an increasing demoniac bloodthirstiness that becomes harder to purge with each day, Charlie turns to science in hopes of reversing his blood curse, but without Elena's approval.

Here's the new synopsis! The book will be free in the kindle store in a few days so stay posted!SYNOPSIS-
Excessive climate engineering left the Earth perilously exposed to cosmic radiation, and the danger was far worse than anyone could have imagined. Many people died at first, but those who were fortunate enough to survive and adapt to the radiation would never be the same again.
Dormant genetic material began to "Awaken" in the DNA of millions of people, including a gene that scientists call-- "The Genesis-6 gene," a gene that introduces retro-viruses into the body's cells. Just two years after this retro-viral outbreak known as "The Turning," large portions of the human race would mutate into old-fashioned human beings known as... Nephilim, beings with extraordinary magical powers but with a notorious reputation.
It was supposed to be a glorious time for the human race, a new stage in human evolution some said, but not everyone reacted well to the new blood that coursed through their veins. Many of the infected became abominations, instead of the enlightened beings the scientific communities expected. It was only a matter of time before all Nephilim were rejected by the majority of humans who still remained within society.
To make matters worse, malevolent spirits that seek to rejoin the land of the living are drawn to the Nephilim like beacons, putting any humans nearby in constant danger. New laws were passed that would make it legal to spy on Nephilim, including a law that would make it impossible for any Nephilim to live private lives.
Because of this, a young Nephilim man named Charlie decides to live life in isolation, choosing to lock himself away from the world that he threatens. No longer able to relate to his human wife, Elena, Charlie finds his marriage slowly slipping away along with his sanity, and after realizing he can no longer cope with the dark spirits that stalk him, as well as an increasing demoniac bloodthirstiness that becomes harder to purge with each day, Charlie turns to science in hopes of reversing his blood curse.
But when a secluded medical facility offers hope for mutant-kind, Charlie learns that not all is what it seems after a secret coven of scientists seek to use Nephilim mutants in an agenda that would re-shape society as we know it.
