Description

A ruthless organization is determined to profit from the COVID-19 pandemic at the expense of millions of lives, but two doctors refuse to give up and race to find the answers. 

Dr Rebecca Hartley-Jones, an expert epidemiologist of the GHO, is used to dealing with unknowns. But when her professor sends her to Wuhan, China, she is stunned by what she finds and even more troubled by what it could mean for millions of innocent people around the globe. Her hunt for answers takes her to Iran, where she is thrown behind bars and subjected to spine-chilling torture.

Indian virologist Dr Raj Kumar, who also seeks answers about the lethal coronavirus, accompanies her on her quest. Will their mission to find a cure and root out the truth lead to disaster? Or will they find the answers they seek and find love?

A ruthless organization is determined to profit from the COVID-19 pandemic at the expense of millions of lives, but two doctors refuse to give up and race to find the answers.

Firstly, thank you to Netgalley for sending me an eARC of this book.
I really enjoyed this book, it is engaging and scientific although the genre is definitely closer to a romance drama rather than anything strictly medical. The exploration of COVID-19 through the different countries and the analysis of failure within political structures is entirely true although some of the parts are fiction for dramatic effect but work very well. Its a fast paced medical drama with very high stakes that I flew through. I liked both the main characters of Rebecca and Raj and my only complaint would be the characterisation of all female characters as extremely negative. Admittedly I was not a fan of the addition of the romance plot but did enjoy the actual romance and the development of their relationship over the book. Overall it is a excellent story about the trials of COVID in a time when it is all still extremely relevant and Vishal Sahni writing is very good and I hope he writes more books in the future.</p>
