Beyond Extinction — John Keeble

The year is 2077 and the planet is reeling from centuries of human abuse. Investigative author Jack Janis and his golden retriever Max fall for Alice Algafari, an alluring but enigmatic researcher, in their quiet rural village. In the wider world, humans and a new race, genetically-evolved numans, compete for survival.
Jack's hopes for an idyllic life with Alice and Max crash amid conspiracy and lethal risks when Alice's boss tries to ensnare them. Alice, Jack and Max are forced to run for their lives.
A final showdown between compassion and science erupts in Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilization, with Max emerging as a key to shaping the future of the planet.
