This is the story of the fountain of youth. When Kenji Hiroshige discovers a formula that will keep people youthful and healthy for several thousand years, he tells the world he will not divulge his secret until every gun, tank, battleship, and bomb hasbeen destroyed. When the world is free of weapons, everyone can live forever. And then he goes into hiding. Before he disappears, his son Matt Reece is exposed to the formula. Kenji takes Matt Reece on the run with him, but as they struggle to elude both government agencies and corporations who will do anything to profit from Kenji's discovery, Matt Reece learns that world peace might not be his father's only goal. But what can a young man who's barely stepped foot off his isolated ranch do in the face of something so sinister? This is the story of human greed and the lust for violence. It's the story of a world on the brink of destruction, but it's also a tale of one young man who finds in himself the will, courage, and compassion to stand against the darkness-both outside and within himself. This is a story of hope.
