Broken Symmetry — Dan Rix

Eleven months after the father of sixteen-year-old Blaire Adams vanished without a trace, he's found wandering outside The Scripps Research Institute vomiting blood and speaking gibberish, his sole possession a worn leather diary filled with an unrecognizable language. He has a message for her.

As he dies in her arms, he claims he never vanished. She vanished.

In a nearby military quarantine zone, scientists are being called in from around the world to sequence a previously unknown strain of DNA. Scientists...and soldiers.

When her father's autopsy reveals a rare chromosomal disorder -- a disorder, it turns out, she inherited -- Blaire begins to suspect her father's last words weren't induced by amnesia. Like her dad, she has an additional set of instructions in her genes -- instructions for what, doctors can't say. Only one thing is certain: it's what killed him...and it will kill her too.

But now she's haunted by prophetic nightmares of the Yellowjacket -- a young murderer, eyes the black of charcoal, who lures his victims to suicide without ever paying them a visit. The only clue she has to his handiwork is a lingering feeling of déjà vu. That, and the nagging suspicion that all she knows is a mirage. She is certain of two things -- though it may mean confiding in the wrong side of good and evil, he has the answers she needs.

And he is recruiting her.
