The power of DNA! Researchers say that DNA from strands of Beethoven’s hair is uncovering what may have caused his death. He had a heightened genetic risk for liver disease and, possibly, a hepatitis B infection. Very sad, as a music artist.

I want to thank Starling R. for their review. They are right; the book uses real science as the concept for my book came to me in a textbook that a nuclear weapon could be used to change weather patterns. I hope they enjoyed the book.
