Description
A powerful and suspenseful novel about the darker side of medicine. Miracle drugs save lives and ease suffering, but for profit-motivated companies, the miracle is the money they generate. Billions of dollars in profits can lead to some very bad decisions. Celia Jordan's fast-track career sweeps her into the highest circles of an international drug company, where she uncovers secrets and sins hidden in the research lab and marketplace. As a new breakthrough drug promises a cure for a deadly disease, Celia begins to suspect that it may deliver more than just hope - it could bring a nightmare.
