520    "A drug that makes the blood of carriers a fountain of 
       youth, a psychopath who doesn't care how many bodies he 
       leaves in his wake, and an LAPD detective hopelessly 
       compromised by a dark secret. Together, they're an 
       explosive mix that's going to shatter the city of Los 
       Angeles into a million corpuscles. The most valuable 
       commodity on earth is the blood of "carriers." These young
       people hold within them a virtual fountain of youth. Those
       with the right genes produce blood that, when treated with
       a new wonder drug, cures disease, increases power, and 
       makes the recipient a virtual superman. It also makes the 
       carriers targets. Blood farms filled with kidnapped 
       children spring up around the country, and Los Angeles is 
       at the center of this blood-dealing world. The police are 
       overwhelmed. Ellie Bautista became an LAPD officer 
       specifically to fight this evil as a member of the Blood 
       Squad, but she has been consistently denied a transfer to 
       the prestigious unit--until the day she and her partner 
       are ambushed during a routine stop. The resulting events 
       plunge her into an undercover world more dangerous than 
       she could have ever imagined. A madman has found a way to 
       increase the potency of the blood to levels previously 
       unimagined. As he cuts a bloody swath through the already 
       deadly world of blood cartels, Ellie is the only hope to 
       stop him before the body count rises"--|cProvided by
