There's a bit of a callout to the handed chirality of life on Earth in Daniel Suarez' "Change Agent" https://www.amazon.com/Change-Agent-Daniel-Suarez/dp/1101984...

Like all of his books, it's a quick read that feels a bit like a movie screenplay. Fast and fun, each book of his has a well-enough-developed hook, but overall I liked Daemon and Freedom best.

If you want a good sci-fi thriller to really stoke the ol' paranoia, Change Agent is actually a pretty decent read.
