What Readers Are Saying
“A fast-paced thriller that dives deep into the ethical implications of gene engineering.”
“If you like a thriller infused with contemporary science and technology that also takes seriously the ethical, social, and legal challenges of biotech, Broken Code is worth a look.”
“For-profit prisons, eugenics, and family bonds... social justice and science fiction in a way that hits home.”
“The potential for misuse of research is palpable... a well-written story woven with personal conflict and emotional turmoil.”
Science fiction author Monica Chase writes thrillers about emerging technology, unchecked power, and the people forced to live with the consequences. Her background in criminal justice and two decades in corporate life grounds The Helix Chronicles, an award-winning series exploring genetic engineering, artificial intelligence, and the systems built to control both.
Her wildest plot twist happened off the page.
In her twenties, Monica donated eggs through an anonymous program. More than two decades later, a DNA match connected her with a daughter she never knew existed. Today, Monica, her daughter, and her adult son are one family, with biology, choice, and plenty of group-chat chaos in the mix.
Monica lives near Washington, D.C., with her husband and an opinionated rescue dog. She has never been good at leaving a question alone.
