Five years after the death of his wife and children, Ryan Matthews is living alone with memories of his failed career in cancer research when fellow scientist Jordan Carver catches his eye. Preparing for a move to Mexico, Jordan plans to open a clinic where terminal patients will have affordable access to experimental medication. Her determination and her beauty convince Ryan of second chances. But when a violent explosion only hours after their fateful encounter leaves the small Bahamian island of Exuma on edge, Ryan knows his life has once again been forever altered. Drawn together by circumstance, attraction, and shared ambition, Ryan and Jordan become united in their international quest for the truth. The two embark on an explosive thrill ride ending in Washington, D.C., where the couple unravels the country's best-kept secret: the government will stop at nothing to maintain the American way of life, with heartbreak and sickness for all.

KIRKUS REVIEW: Shaw spins a thriller that gives big pharma a convincing, ugly bruising... He builds the story slowly, comfortably serving forth players who weave their way into a layered tale where corporate greed, political malfeasance, personal ambition and ethical behavior vie for ascendancy ...not only timely, but smart, chromatic and...atmospheric. --Kirkus Discoveries
