THE GARDENER

Book ID/图书代码: 08900008B22872

English Summary/英文概要: Mason has never known his father, but longs to. All he has of him is a DVD of a man whose face is never seen, reading a children’s book. One day, on a whim, he plays the DVD for a group of comatose teens at the nursing home where his mother works. One of them, a beautiful girl, responds. Mason learns she is part of a horrible experiment intended to render teenagers into autotrophs—genetically engineered, self-sustaining life-forms who don’t need food or water to survive. And before he knows it, Mason is on the run with the girl, and wanted, dead or alive, by the mysterious mastermind of this gruesome plan, who is simply called the Gardener.

Will Mason be forced to destroy the thing he’s longed for most?

Chinese Summary/中文概要: Mason从没见过他的父亲,但他很想认识他。他只有一张DVD,里面一个看不到脸的男人,正在读一本儿童书。有一天,他一时兴起,打开DVD播放给一群在他妈妈上班的疗养院里的昏迷的青少年。他们中的一个漂亮的小女孩对此有了反应。他才知道她是那个可怕的让孩子变成自养生物的实验品之一——不需要食物和水地机械的生存的人。在Mason知道真像以前,他为这个女孩奔忙着,想要逃开这个名叫园丁的邪恶计划。
Mason能够毁掉这他一直想要得到的东西吗?(兼职翻译-LN)
