The Vial of Life

After years of failed experiments, a lone scientist, Freedman Carver III, creates a serum that allows seeds to triple their growth without the use of light, water, or fertilizer. Word of his success soon spreads around the globe with agents seeking to obtain the serum for their countries' use as the serum will bring untold riches to the country that possesses it.

The Third, realizing he must protect his serum until he can determine how to best utilize and distribute it, asks his friend, Allie, to take a vial of the serum to his longtime scientist friend, Lenny, who has a laboratory in his home in Kensington, which is located just below the Arctic Circle.

Winging her way north with the serum in a vial on a chain around her neck, Allie is unaware of the danger of her mission. The twists and turns of the journey of the vial will test everyone involved far beyond their limits and their expectations. No one is safe.
