Before Adam is a bit of a departure from London's other novels. Still an adventure novel, this one revolves around the dreams of a young boy, dreams that involve racial memories and the knowledge of his prior existence as a man-like creature named Big Tooth living in prehistoric times. "These are our ancestors, and their history is our history. Remember that as surely as we one day swung down out of the trees and walked upright, just as surely, on a far earlier day, did we crawl up out of the sea and achieve our first adventure on land."
For the first time in history, the USA and Russia have perceived a threat from Indian military technology. They must put it down. Satyan Sharma, a young entrepreneur, dreams of building a world-class software powerhouse. His big chance comes when his company is selected to design the 'brains' of high-tech artillery to be produced through collaboration between India and Uzbekistan. Neither USA nor Russia wants third-world upstarts in the global arms industry. They deploy their secret services to manipulate corrupt Indian politicians at the highest level and sabotage the project. Satyan and his fiance Rubita, a feisty TV presenter, find themselves in a dangerous hunt-or-be-hunted game. They use wits and guile to shift the battle to the ground they are familiar with - the media and India's corporate circles.
