Imagine being at the absolutely known time of your death. It comes. You are pronounced dead before witnesses by your doctor.Then you wake up. You are in a tropical paradise in a world very much like the one you were living in. Except now you are on a small tropical island. In a compound surrounded by a high fence topped by razor-wire. In the waters around the island are ferocious sharks. And that kindly doctor, who cheerfully announced to you that you are not dead---is there. He simply put you to sleep , he said. But now he injects you with HIV fluid.Behold! You have the makings of The Nano Experiment. Human subjects in the novel are convicted criminals sentenced to die for their crimes. They are pronounced dead by the prison doctor who is being paid by a medical research company to smuggle these prisoners out to a research facility. It is a kind of living-hell. The subjects are injected with diseases the medical research company hopes can be cured by another injection, this one containing tiny "machines" capable of rendering the diseases harmless.But a massive hurricane sweeps the island. It sweeps the island clean---except for a pair of inmates, two lovers. These escape to the mainland. They are intent on vengeance upon the perpetrators of the experiments on them. And if they are captured inthis pursuit, what can happen? They are already declared legally dead.What an interesting and mind-boggling story. It is an easy, fun, edge-of-the-seat read.
