Malfunction

What does being a Malfunction mean? Well, to put it in simple terms, you're dead meat. Being a Malfunction is fatal, and it often gets you killed in front of the entire State. The only thing you can do to escape death is run. Run as far away from The State as you can. Life in The State is not exciting. Cassiopeia has lived there her entire life, and that basically means that she has lived a satisfying life. According to the government, that is. She has no friends and no family. She lives by the rules, trying to blend in with everyone so she is not seen as an outsider. But things change for her when Malfunctions start popping up in The State. After witnessing the death of the Malfunction who murdered The President of The State, Cassiopeia returns to her Residential Unit and heads to bed, knowing that life is only going to get worse from there. Security will be tightened, and anyone who is seen as an outsider is going to be taken to The Labour District where they will spend the rest of their life in misery and agony. That night, after Cassiopeia has fallen into a peaceful slumber, she wakes up to a rapid pounding on her door. The minute Cassiopeia opens that door, she has to make a decision that will change her life drastically and put it in danger for as long as she lives.

But Logan is determined to find the truth. Unfortunately, he’s got a new partner—and he works best alone. Katia Mendoza, hot-shot homicide detective, has been woken from cryo to assist with the investigation. But is she really interested in solving the case, or does she have her own agenda? Before he can answer that question, they become targets themselves. Nothing like a few near misses with death to bring a couple together, and Logan finds himself falling for the alluring detective.

This is the first of three volumes in the "Ion Channels & Transporters in Tumor Biology" collection, which discusses the function of ion transport proteins in cellular and systemic homeostasis. The authors highlight the role of the so-called transportome, which is defined by the entirety of ion transporters and ion channels. Thereby, readers will get a better understanding of the impact dysregulated ion transport has on the whole spectrum of cancer types. Cancers display deficiencies in several, sometimes interdependent members of the transportome. Clinicians will be interested in the fact that controlled expression of ion transport proteins dramatically impacts the life span of cancer patients, as shown in recent studies. These observations offer a promising outlook for biomedical scientists, as members of the transportome could be the tumor markers of tomorrow - both for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. As part of a three-volume collection, this book will fascinate members of the active research community, as well as clinicians from the cancer field.
