“I cannot make sense of these data of Sine. I have never seen so much woman in any sample.” John Djerassi, the genomic profiling expert, looked pondering at Samuel. It should have been an easy case for Samuel, a New York traffic police officer. “Rapid closure with a perfect report, which can support your resume” was the guidance from his boss, Jack, in the New York Police Department when he was asked to figure out what happened with Sine—a wonderful and attractive woman—and what made her run confused around the streets of New York, be arrested, and brought to the police station.
