DEEVOLVED

DEEVOLVED
By SL Dobbins

GENRE: Sci-fi, Adventure
LOGLINE: When a mysterious alien microorganism begins reversing evolution, turning birds back into dinosaurs, two paleontologists must team up with a global secret organization to save humanity from a catastrophic extinction event while battling an international villain determined to unleash prehistoric chaos upon the world.

SYNOPSIS:

When an extraterrestrial microorganism reawakens ancient DNA, turning modern birds into prehistoric creatures, paleontologists Dr. Cam Sinclair and Jace McAle embark on a globe-trotting adventure to save humanity from celestial threats and corporate villainy. Drs. Cam Sinclair and Jace McAle, paleontologists from the University of Edinburgh, question the prevailing hypothesis surrounding the dinosaur extinction event 65 million years ago. The scientific community agrees the asteroid impact created the massive Chicxulub Crater in the Yucatan Peninsula and attribute the catastrophic aftermath to a global nuclear winter, wiping out animal and plant life. But what if the asteroid wasn’t the sole cause? What if an extraterrestrial microorganism accelerated evolution, transforming dinosaurs into feathered birds rather than extinction? Dr. Sinclair’s and Dr. McAle’s invention, the Deoxy Investigative Nucleic Acid machine (DINA), identifies dinosaur DNA in ancient remains swiftly and they uncover unexplained anomalies after celestial events reintroduce this germ to Earth. Recruited by a clandestine organization in Brussels, they investigate strange occurrences—people vanishing, odd tracks, and sightings. Joined by Susannah Quinn, the organization’s Special Projects Manager, they embark on a globe-trotting adventure. In South Dakota, they witness a bird’s terrifying transformation into its prehistoric counterpart. The alien organism is back, only this time, it’s reshaping birds into ancient forms. Their mission: save humanity from this celestial threat. But they face a tyrannical Hong Kong corporation led by a physically deformed villain who seeks to use DINA to wipe out humanity. The team battles dinosaurs, conspirators, and cosmic events, weaving adventure, humor, and science fiction into a daring journey across the world.
