Meet Alan Dyson, a research scientist experimenting with the longevity effects of a newly discovered bristlecone pine tree gene. He thinks he's being watched and followed. He's right. When his secret formula is stolen, and all notes are wiped from his computer, his friend--the firm's computer programmer--secretly tracks the thief to a P.O. Box in Zion, Iowa. Under suspicion, and with his project canceled due to a bizarre death, Alan visits Zion to discover that he's not the only stranger in town, and that someone has been using the residents as guinea pigs in a chilling medical experiment. In a dangerous gambit to expose whoever is hiding the truth, he solicits help from the police, and is arrested instead. Now, only a young woman hiding there under the Witness Protection Program can help him escape. But can he convince her to join forces to uncover this conspiracy of silence involving the potential for immortality? Because whoever is behind it all has made an astonishing discovery of Biblical proportions, and is murdering everyone to cover their tracks.

"I narrated the Audiobook edition of "Methuselah Gene". Narration involves a unique immersion into the text; I had read the book three times in the end. And I enjoyed it every single time! In each chapter, the characters grew more solid, more human, even as the plot grew seemingly out of control. With just enough reality, just enough convoluted mess, just enough sarcasm, it was my kind of relatable-thriller. Lowe does a magnificent job setting the stage too, every scene was clear in my mind. A reality-fantasy, intelligently crafted, thoroughly enjoyable. Definitely a page-turner, though easier on the fingers in ebook and audiobook editions. -TL" — Tim Lundeen (5 out of 5 stars)
