Behemoth
by Peter Watts
You destroyed the world five years ago. The world has come. So you brought a gift from the depths of the sea, a doomsday germ to throw the planet on its side. Now DNA itself is at the exit. North America lies in ruins under the finger of a great psychopath. Governments around the world have fallen; warlords and suicide cults rose from the ashes. Because five years ago you had an account that needed to be resolved. But in the meantime, you discovered something: You destroyed the world with false claims. You have been wandering among the deep Atlantic mountains for many years. But you can't hide it forever. The consequences of past actions inevitably reach the bottom of the world – and suddenly, even here, there is no way to return the body's number. Either way, you'll face the mess you've made.
