He had the money.
He had the power.
And for fourteen billion dollars, Adrian Locke bought the one thing no man ever has—immortality.

Or so he thought.

When a revolutionary procedure promises to free him from the frailties of biology, Adrian awakens in a perfected body—stronger, sharper, untouchable. But perfection begins to glitch. A pulse where none should exist. A presence beneath the skin. A truth buried deep below the surface.

Somewhere in the dark, something is still alive.

Defeating Death is a chilling sci-fi thriller about vanity, control, and the terrifying cost of trying to outrun mortality.
