Fades the Flower

Paul Wilcox is 83 years old. When his friend invites him to visit an unusual archeological site in Lebanon, he never suspects that it will change his life. Archeologists have discovered evidence of an advanced human civilization wiped out over a hundred thousand years ago in a biological war when the first virus was created from scratch and unleashed on the world. All the viruses known to humanity have their origins in an ancient weapon of war gone haywire. But that is not the only wonder uncovered; an advanced computer from that ancient time still exists and gives Paul a secret that will change his life—and the lives of everyone else in the world—more than any other secret from the past: the secret to eternal youth.
