From the author of the magnificent 'Night's Dawn' trilogy, a provocative look at the days not too long after tomorrow. It is forty years into the future and, following decades of research and trillions of Euros spent on genetics, Europe is finally in a position to rejuvenate a human being. Jeff Baker is the first subject chosen for treatment - the father of the datasphere (which replaced the internet) and philanthropist extraordinaire. After eighteen months in a German medical facility, the seventy-eight-year-old patient returns home looking like a healthy twenty-year-old. "Misspent Youth" follows the effect his reappearance has on his young ex-model wife Sue, his teenage son Tim, and also on his long-term pals who are now themselves all pensioners, and starting to resent what Jeff has become.
