Darwin's Cipher: The Genesis of a Cure
A revolutionary discovery. A lethal new threat. A race against time to save humanity.
In Darwin’s Cipher, brilliant cancer researcher Juan Gutierrez uncovers a hidden genetic algorithm that can predict the path of a species’ evolution over millennia. His breakthrough offers a tantalizing hope for overcoming human vulnerability to disease—but shadowy forces have their own sinister plans for this genetic super-tool.
When an FBI analyst investigating bizarre, unsolved cases is called out to a ranch with a single surviving calf surrounded by dead cattle, the DNA evidence points to something far beyond the ordinary. Meanwhile, a newborn child with an impossible genome sets off alarms at the NIH—and the race to contain a nightmarish outbreak begins.
From hidden labs to high-security bio-containment units, Darwin’s Cipher hurtles you into a nerve-shredding chase where science, conspiracy, and evolution collide—with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance. Prepare to question everything you thought you knew about our genetic destiny.

Review
"With Darwin's Cipher, M.A. Rothman has crafted an intriguing science thriller with a nail-biting finale."
- F. Paul Wilson, New York Times bestselling author
"M.A. Rothman's DARWIN'S CIPHER is a gripping, well-researched, and all-too-realistic thriller about medical research and genetic modification."
- Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author
"For nail-biting science fiction thrillers, look no further than one of Rothman's stories. Sit back and enjoy the ride."
- Larry Correia, New York Times bestselling author.
"DARWIN'S CIPHER is a medical thriller about how illegal genetic programming affects a family and should appeal to fans of Robin Cook and Michael Crichton. Fast-paced, thought-provoking, and moving."
- David Farland, New York Times bestselling author
"A smart, engrossing tale that entertainingly uses science."
- Kirkus Reviews
"The polished skill with which Michael relates his intriguing and immensely involving story showcases both his mastery of technology as well as his obvious travels and knowledge of global intrigue. But he steps further into the spotlight with his introduction of chief character Juan Gutierrez...
At the end of the novel Michael offers some scientific factual information that heightens the readers interest - frightening but true. Writing of this caliber, having created a mesmerizing lead character whose skills as a human being are staggering, suggests that this book could easily be adapted as a screenplay for a fine motion picture. Having read all of Michael superb novels this reader awaits the inevitable screenplay transformation. Highly Recommended."
