The Panacea project is tagged as a medical thriller centred around Calla. While in her early 20s, Calla discovers the cure for cancer may be found in her blood. What follows are a lot of changes to her personal life, while at the same time dealing with the high stakes that come with being the most sought-after commodity on earth.

I haven't read any medical thrillers in a while, so this was an excellent way to get back into the genre. The first half of this book delivers pretty well on the thrills but after that it sort of plateaus into what is meant to be some character development ( I think) which I didn't quite enjoy.. After that, the rest of the novel is pretty much predictable, except for a minor unexpected twist but a satisfactory end. In summary, it is an easy read, well-paced and for the most part, a good plot.
The novel has an interesting theme that would be useful for bookclub discussions. What do you owe the world?
