GATEHOUSE MEDIA BOOK REVIEWER ENTHRALLED WITH Gene Defense: A Fictional Genetic Thriller"
"Genetic codes rule in Marblehead author's fictional thriller" by Charlene Peters/Wicked Local Marblehead/Marblehead Reporter/GateHouse Media.
"Boston in 2013 will be significantly different than today...Although a work of fiction, this tale of health-care provisions and criminal genetic codes is based on many realities-with links provided as proof. With political powers out of control and a lovable and well-trained dog, Siggie, who is able to flip off a light switch and shut off an alarm clock, this story will keep you engrossed as you follow along in the adventures of Boston attorney Paeton Weaver, who from the start of protecting her sister, Casey, reconnects with her past. Her path leads her to find her cousin Barry, unclaimed family documents- and ends in political entanglement....Sounds like a thriller film in the making..."

Living with Criminal Genes
New genetic political thriller takes readers to 2013, when genetics becomes the basis for trust in the society.
Marblehead, MA
(Autographed and Discounted through the Author)
___________________________________________________________________________
Fans of mystery, suspense, and thriller novels are in for a treat as author Joy Ashe combines all three genres into one exhilarating release. Her newly published book through XLibris, Gene Defense, takes on the perfect collision of events that tears the belief that people, when challenged, are good-hearted souls.
Gene Defense: A Fictional Genetic Thriller sweeps readers forward to the year 2013, a time when the whole American way of life--from health care provisions, the justice system, medical outcomes, jobs, friends, family, and water and food supply to one's very own fate--depends upon one's DNA and no one can hide from his or her genetic history. Here, Boston attorney Paeton Weaver examines the social, psychological, and legal ramifications of genetic social engineering when under new U.S. leadership, the citizens become valued based on individual genetic characteristics. The apparent suicidal death of her brother-in-law takes her deeper into this study. Along the way, she discovers the dark Weaver family history through a series of nightmares. Secrets kept hidden over two hundred years reveal ghastly murders, leading her to ponder her own genetic fate. Her fear becomes intense when she hears from her long-lost cousin, who willingly risks his own life to save the country from a power-hungry president and obedient bureaucrats. Could genes really lead one to do crimes and take lives?
Wrapped with an assemblage of unforgettable characters that play along unpredictable twists and erratic turns, Gene Defense: A Fictional Genetic Thriller dares to ponder on numerous complex questions in a mission of self-examination. It is a stirring book that delivers thrill with every turn of the page.
