About this title: Dr. Katherine Sundquist is an archaeologist who has recently begun studying hominid bones discovered near a volcano on the island of Maui. When her young son goes diving nearby, he discovers a geode from outer space, and subsequently his lungs can no longer tolerate oxygen. Soon Katherine discovers that a local astronomer has been receiving radio signals from space that include a DNA code. Could aliens be attempting to alter human genetic make-up?

"This book was really fun! Plus, it's set on Maui, so I was loving imagining being back on the islands even if there was some super shady science going down."
"i finished this book last night and it was just ok. I was hoping with a title like the presence that it would be a little creepy but it was more of a medical/science mystery. I might read something else by John Saul i like the way he wrights I just wasn't thrilled on this story line."
