About Baby X:

In Baby X, author Kira Peikoff plunges readers into a world in which science can create embryos – and ultimately children – with cells from any two people on earth. The process is so easy that a black market for stolen DNA emerges as people try to steal DNA from well-sought-after celebrities. The twisted tale follows a music superstar who hires a bio-security guard to help keep his genetic material safely away from a black-market company called "The Vault."
