The only clue left behind is a tiny bladed robot, nearly invisible to the human eye. In the lush forests of Oahu, groundbreaking technology has ushered in a revolutionary era of biological prospecting. Trillions of microorganisms, tens of thousands of bacteria species, are being discovered; they are feeding a search for priceless drugs and applications on a scale beyond anything previously imagined. In Cambridge, Massachusetts, seven graduate students at the forefront of their fields are recruited by a pioneering microbiology start-up. Nanigen MicroTechnologies dispatches the group to a mysterious lab in Hawaii, where they are promised access to tools that will open a whole new scientific frontier. But once in the Oahu rain forest, the scientists are thrust into a hostile wilderness that reveals profound and surprising dangers at every turn. Armed only with their knowledge of the natural world, they find themselves prey to a technology of radical and unbridled power. To survive, they must harness the inherent forces of nature itself. 541 $d 20170718. 650 0 $a Nanotechnology $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Rain forests $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Microbiologists $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Compact discs. 650 0 $a Microorganisms $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Oahu (Hawaii) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction.) 700 $a Preston, Richard. 700 $a Lloyd, John Bedford. nrt. 941 $a 6 945 $a cda 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314033009.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204043822.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110025958.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717022748.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107013825.0 952 $l XZPB787 $d 20180116083917.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AA37AFE2F83611E784964A6B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
