About this listen

A SCIENTIFIC THRILLER WHERE IMMORTALITY COMES AT A TERRIFYING COST

"What if curing aging was humanity’s greatest breakthrough—and its deadliest mistake?"

In The Serpent’s Embrace, John Hands crafts a heart-pounding scientific thriller that pits cutting-edge genetics against corporate greed, ancient mythology, and moral decay. Narrated by Phillip Nathaniel Freeman & Claire Glover and published by Audiobook Publishing Services, this audiobook plunges you into a world where immortality is within reach—but the price is your soul.

WHY YOU’LL BE HOOKED:

Science Gone Rogue:

Dr. Richard Trent, a visionary cancer researcher, discovers the anti-aging gene—but his breakthrough threatens a pharmaceutical empire that will kill to bury it.

Myth Meets Madness:

Maria Snowe, a biotech entrepreneur worshipped as the reincarnation of the serpent goddess Ixchel, offers Richard unlimited funding—if he surrenders to her chilling condition.

A Deadly Choice:

As suspicious deaths pile up, Richard’s assistant Lucy Jonnsen battles Maria for his conscience. Will he sacrifice his integrity for immortality—or watch his life’s work die?

PERFECT FOR FANS OF:

Jurassic Park meets The Da Vinci Code
Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter (with a genetic twist)
Michael Crichton’s ethical science nightmares

Published by Audiobook Publishing Services, The Serpent’s Embrace isn’t just a novel—it’s a warning wrapped in a nail-biter.
