The Prometheus Sequence
Some doors were meant to stay closed.
by David Bishop
A biotech company secretly uses ancient Nephilim DNA to modify children, creating vessels for imprisoned cosmic beings. When 14-year-old Zoe Chen discovers she can resist possession, she becomes humanity's last hope in a war that has raged since before the Flood.
The Story
Helix Institute promises miracle cures for genetic diseases. The reality is far darker: they're using DNA extracted from biblical Nephilim remains to create children capable of hosting the Watchers—fallen angels imprisoned since the Flood. When teenager Zoe Chen develops the unique ability to resist possession and help others do the same, she's thrust into an ancient war between the Remnant (guardians of humanity) and the Seventy (a 3,000-year-old cult working to free the Watchers). A supernatural thriller in the tradition of John Grisham, blending corporate conspiracy with biblical mythology.
