Chemotroph by Ian McKinley
They know that microbes containing the secrets of rejuvenation and indefinite longevity can be found in the bowels of a deep repository for nuclear waste. A team heads for Europe, unaware that they are walking into the cross-hairs of groups who would kill to obtain their knowledge – or to stop others from possessing it. Sampling the microbes acts as a trigger; suddenly staying alive is top priority and the team is on the run, trying to stay invisible to a mega-corporation with all the resources of mid-21st century technology at its command. This hard-hitting sequel to Extremophile does not “sanitise for your protection” and thus is not for the faint-hearted.
