Local author Lawrence Rothstein book signing at Wakefield Books for his new book, Ripped Genes. Rothstein is a retired lawyer and university professor who has been published in constitutional law, privacy law, and labor law. He was born and raised in Chicago and since 1974 has resided with his wife and family in beautiful southern Rhode Island. He has lived and traveled widely in Europe. Marko Korb and his assistant Kelan Su are back for another Tri-Star investigation, this time concerning the murder of Alan Scanlon who fraudulently patented and monopolized the research on the gene related to a rare genetic disease, feraxia.
