The book "Acute: The Origins" is a sci-fi mystery-thriller about a series of bizarre mass suicides and environmental disasters in Wisconsin City that unveil a hidden alien conspiracy. Detective Lara Kim investigates the inexplicable events — people dying by self-inflicted gunshots, acid rain destroying the city, and engineered genetic mutations — leading her to uncover a covert alien presence manipulating human DNA and the environment. As the crisis escalates into attacks, abductions, and interplanetary conflict, Lara is captured and transported to a hidden alien world, Caelus Vesta, where she learns she carries genetically altered DNA that makes her key to either humanity's destruction or salvation. She becomes a bridge between Earth and Vesta in a battle against the Dominion, a faction seeking to conquer Earth using advanced bio-weapons. The novel blends mystery, biotech horror, alien warfare, and political rebellion across two worlds.
