Blue Gene is a hard-boiled crime drama and procedural, hovering in the space between CSI and The Wire, but with a twist: the backdrop is Los Angeles, fifty years from now, and the crime that gets the biggest press is the illegal resequencing of your genetic structure.
The Blue, as they call it on the streets, is society’s most dangerous weapon and its worst drug. Forget explosives and armor-piercing rounds. Imagine what a human being can do if they’re literally bulletproof and can punch things with the force of a shotgun blast. Forget heroin or cocaine. Imagine how long a dealer can keep someone on the hook by making sure they no longer age.
But the Blue may also be humanity’s greatest boon. A certain remedy to some of our worst diseases and maladies. The end of congenital anomalies. The key to the most idealized human form possible, operating at the pinnacle of physical and mental faculties. Many people say that the Blue should be legal, that the benefits outweigh the costs, even as newsfeeds broadcast daily evidence of the horrors caused by its misuse.
Which side of the law will you be on?
