Unholy Domain, Dan Ronco's new thriller from Kunati Books , predicted the Vatican's biggest new concern genetic engineering. According to the Church, genetic engineering may produce consequences difficult to foresee and control. This is eerily similar to the theme of Ronco's new thriller.

Riegelsville, PA, USA, March 17, 2008 (XTVWorld.Com) -- Unholy Domain, Dan Ronco's new thriller from Kunati Books , is scheduled for release April 2, 2008.
