OverviewAngela is obsessed with death. This powerful fixation has driven her to pursue a ruthless career as the CEO of one of the world's largest biotech and pharmaceutical empires and she diverts much of her organisation's research budget towards finding a cure for ageing. To secure her legacy Angela creates a prize fund for scientists working on improving human longevity. In doing so she sets the human race on a path towards unlocking the cure to ageing. But Angela didn't imagine the impact a cure for ageing would have on the population and she failed to ask what the world would look like if we discovered the secret to eternal life? Ghosts in the Machine explores the human conditions of death and ageing, and in doing so responds to a terrifying thought - what happens if we actually find a way of living forever?

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationJohn is a graduate of Brunel University, where he received a First Class Honours Degree in English with Creative Writing. He formed a successful copywriting agency soon afterwards, which he sold before the tender age of thirty. He very recently formed a crowdfunding agency called TribeFirst, which is the world's first crowdfunding marketing communications agency dedicated to supporting both equity and rewards campaigns. Ghosts in the Machine is John's second book, his first being a university project that he turned into a full manuscript and published independently. John is a big believer in crowdfunding and sees it as the future of the publishing industry, so as soon as he heard about Unbound he jumped at the chance to crowdfund his second book on the platform.
