Thorn boy

the long version

Horticultural student Derrick Stabb gets caught up in a deadly web as fellow students with unmistakable Aryan traits mysteriously vanish. Derrick is cast into the limelight of suspicion after he reveals to police a bloody discovery in a laboratory jar. Aware that he has the same traits as the missing students, Derrick suspects a faceless adversary--an expert in plant science--has hatched an unspeakable experiment linking human genes to an undiscovered blue rose. He soon learns the truth of her hidden agenda--to avenge the annihilation of her parents and six million Jews.
