"The teacher: a twisted genius obsessed with the ultimate question of existence. He seeks the answer at the instant of transition between life and death.
The students: blond and beautiful, they yield to him their young, open minds even as he reaches in to strip them of their knowledge - and their lives.
The lesson: the first is found tied to her kitchen table, her skull carved open with a surgeon's precision. All the evidence suggests that her brain was dissected while she was still alive.
Now LAPD Homicide detective Kate Duvall finds herself in a desperate race against time that leads her from the inner sanctum of a cabal of Nobel Prize-winning scientists to the mean streets of Los Angeles to the apocalyptic desolation of Atomic City to catch a brilliant and brutal psychopath who seeks to bridge the quantum leap between life and death."
