This was a pretty fun read, which felt a lot like a Jack Reacher novel or something similar. Characters were OK with believable decision-making.
The story premise was interesting: it's the near future and certain genetic engineering has come of age, but has already had unintended consequences, with a gene mod intended to kill mosquitos leading to a worldwide famine and significant human die-off. The gene scientist who designed and released the fateful mod was the protagonist's mother and he bore the brunt of punishment for the incident but now works for an agency fighting against rogue genetic engineering groups to prevent future similar mistakes.

That's the set-up, and from there, it's essentially a thriller that is fun. but not overly deep.
