I thought I knew who the villain was. Until one scene—spoken in a quiet moment—shifted everything. It wasn’t planned. It wasn’t loud. But it had weight. And suddenly, the character I thought was background became the force behind it all. In Echoes of Control, that force steps fully into the light—and what she wants will change everything. #thehelixchronicles #booktube #sciencefiction 📘 Start with Broken Code https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D7GB12SW 🔥 Book 2, Echoes of Control, drops July 14 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FCJKNX8P ➡️ Pre-order or get the newsletter: https://www.monicachase.com/

CRISPR made headlines for its ability to cut DNA. But Bridge RNA? It can potentially rewrite massive sections of our genetic code—without making a single cut. While still in the early stages, this would be a huge leap forward. This real-life scientific breakthrough inspired a chilling twist in Echoes of Control, Book 2 of The Helix Chronicles. What happens when a technology this powerful is used... without consent? In my fictional world, this tool becomes the centerpiece of a global conspiracy—where rewriting your DNA doesn’t just change your health, it rewrites who you are. #dnaediting #sciencefiction #thehelixchronicles #geneediting 📘 Begin with Broken Code https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D7GB12SW 🔥 Echoes of Control launches July 14 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FCJKNX8P ➡️ Grab the pre-order or join the newsletter: https://www.monicachase.com/

Baby KJ was born with a rare, deadly condition—and thanks to a groundbreaking gene-editing treatment, he survived. It's one of the most powerful examples of what CRISPR can do when it’s used to heal. But in Echoes of Control, Book 2 of The Helix Chronicles, I took a darker lens. I imagined a world where the same tools are used not to cure—but to control. Quietly. Permanently. When technology races ahead of policy—and humanity—where does the line get drawn? #geneediting #crispr #sciencefiction #thehelixchronicles 📘 Start the story in Broken Code https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D7GB12SW 🔥 Book 2, Echoes of Control, launches July 14 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FCJKNX8P ➡️ Learn more or sign up: https://www.monicachase.com/

This really happened: A man with ALS regained his ability to communicate through a brain-computer interface—a breakthrough moment for science and humanity. But in Echoes of Control, I took that tech and asked the terrifying what-if: What if this was used on people without their consent? What if the interface wasn’t a gift—but a trap? These are the questions that fuel The Helix Chronicles, my speculative thriller series about tech, power, and the fine line between innovation and control. #braincomputerinterface #thehelixchronicles #scifithriller 📘 Start with Broken Code https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D7GB12SW 🔥 Book 2, Echoes of Control, drops July 14 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FCJKNX8P ➡️ Learn more or sign up for updates at https://www.monicachase.com/
