This new novel by the author of the highly successful The Mephisto Waltz combines the narrative talents of an ingenious storyteller with the latest medical breakthroughs in the effort in the effort to arrest and reverse the aging process.
The time is now. The players are three couples, each comprised of an older and younger partner: the head of a major pharmaceutical company and his adoring young bride; a Wall Street financier and his teen-age, unadoring son; and an aging British actress and her young man from Secaucus, New Jersey. The "grand hotel" setting is a Swiss chateau-clinic, presided over by a distinguished American gerontologist, where the three older parties have come for treatments designed to make them more youthful. Always stage center is the Methuselah Enzyme, with its infinite capacity to be a blessing or a curse, according to the various human natures of those who control it.
The true nature of the treatments at Chateau Mirabelle, their unexpected consequences and the special involvement of the younger members of the group in the "cure" of the older are the explosive elements of a story compounded of high drama, medical authenticity and far-ranging social implications.
