Eve Duncan and Joe Quinn must protect the life of a brilliant
scientist so that she can live long enough to bring her discovery to the
world, in this fast-paced thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling
author Iris Johansen.
Diane Connors is a dedicated doctor with the world's biggest secret, a
discovery that could have shocking global ramifications. But while
conducting private research trials, word has gotten out. The wrong
people have heard the news and now want to hide Diane's achievement for
their own ends.
With nowhere else to turn, Diane finds herself on the doorstep of the
last man she wants to ask for help: her ex-husband, Joe Quinn. Joe has
remarried, and he and his wife, Eve Duncan, seem blissfully happy in
their quiet, rural life until they are faced with the challenge of
risking it all--even their marriage itself--for the greater good ...
Now Eve is trapped in a web of murder and deceit as powerful enemies
rush to cover up the truth, determined that Diane's discovery goes with
her to the grave--even if Eve and Joe get buried with her.
