SAN DIEGO – July 12, 2017 – PRLog — Author Matthew J. Pallamary’s award winning thriller, “CyberChrist”
Ashley Butler, a prize winning journalist at the San Diego Times receives an email from a man who claims to have discovered immortality by turning off the aging gene in a 15 year old boy with an aging disorder. The email has pictures showing a reversal of the aging process, the name of a scientist, and a company to investigate.
Thinking it a hoax, Ashley forwards the email to friends. Though skeptical, she calls to investigate and gets a no longer in service message. When she leaves her office she overhears a news story about the death of the scientist mentioned in the email.
Ashley decides to check out the company mentioned in the email and discovers a gutted building where the company was supposed to be. When she checks out the deceased scientist’s address, she has a confrontation with an unfriendly federal investigator. When she returns to her office she finds him, subpoena in hand, confiscating her computer.
The investigator tells Ashley that the scientist who sent her the email is a killer that they need help catching. When she does more checking with her own investigators, none of them return.
The forwarded email becomes the basis for an online church built around the boy, calling him CyberChrist. The CyberChrist church claims that the Internet is the physical manifestation of the group mind of humanity and that the boy is the second coming of Christ online.
The federal government tries to shut down the church, but its website replicates faster than they can stop it. While church and state battle over religious freedom online, the media and the state battle over freedom of speech.
Ashley battles to stay alive.
