En 'Tratamiento Invasor', los 'curadores' se dedican a recoger indigentes y curar enfermedades genéticas mediante un virus adaptado al genoma de cada paciente. Sin embargo, este mismo virus resulta letal para otros seres humanos. La Agencia de Riesgos Biológicos (ARB) recurre al doctor Frank Hartman, un virólogo que parece haber desarrollado un antivirus eficaz, para combatir esta amenaza. La novela plantea un conflicto entre el futuro que promete un nuevo Profeta, basado en la mejora genética, y el que defiende la ARB, generando una reflexión sobre los límites de la medicina y la ética.
