Peter F. Hamilton - The Nano Flower (Greg Mandel #3, epub) [j_ray]

Julia Evans, billionairess owner of Event Horizon, has for fifteen years
been the power behind England's economic renaissance - but now she's in
trouble. With her husband missing, and rival companies suddenly claiming
to have acquired a technology impossibly superior to anything on Earth,
she has no time to take notice of a single flower delivered anonymously.
But this flower possesses genes millions of years in advance of any
terrestrial DNA. Is it a cryptic alien message, or a poignant farewell
token from her husband? One man might discover its origin - but Greg
Mandel will not be alone in his desperate search. And, as they both now
discover, simply being first in the race isn't nearly good enough when
the Nano Flower begins to bloom ...
