    Hey GK, it's me (not Jade).Over Shabbos I read the first book of Mastermind and I loved it. But I still have a question: even if five osiris experiments escape and are miraculously and somehow not found, Hammerstrom can still do his experiment and make up a story for the rest of Serenity that Hector, Tori, Eli and the rest died in some freak  accident. I hope to finish the rest of the series soon and find out what happens.

    Thanks! Ruchama

    Well, let's consider that. What if the law is after Hammerstrom because the escapees have found the courage to tell their story to someone in authority who will listen? It's necessary to stop the "bleeding" first, or the experiment is in permanent peril. For one thing, the escapees' genetic heritage makes them dangerous to Serenity and the whole project, including the perpetrators. The whole thing definitely has to shut down until the leak is plugged.                     


    I hope you enjoy the rest of the series as much as I loved writing it!                                    -----GK-----

    Yes, but that means that they have to sneak out of Randy's school and the Surety might come after them if they tell and Hammerstrom can escape the police and move the experiment somewhere else and tell the rest of Serenity another lie

    Sneaking out of Randy's school comes next -- they can't stay there because their whereabouts will be figured out by the Surety. But there's a big wide world to lose themselves in, right? The Surety is in trouble too, as are all the scientists involved in raising the children and pretending to be their parents. Oh, man, I hope I'm not telling you too much of Book #2!


    It's not likely that Hammerstrom can escape the police -- human cloning is illegal on a worldwide basis. And setting up Serenity took all the years the babies were growing up plus buckets of cash. The town doesn't move easily. Or cheaply.


    I planned it in excruciating detail!                                                 -----GK-----
