- Emmy award winner Todd Easterling's 3rd book.
- Top 1% in sales (USA). #1 Best Seller in Medical Thrillers (France) and #1 and #7 in Movie Tie-In Fiction (Canada; USA).
- From the author of Genetic World (top 1% since released in May, 2021).
Emmy award winner Todd Easterling, who has worked with HBO and was discovered by the Garon-Brooke Literary Agency of John Grisham fame, clearly aims at a romantic adventure reminiscent of the brilliant Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook) and Nicholas Evans (The Horse Whisperer). The Miracle Man is Todd's third book, preceding his latest, Genetic World--a #1 Best Seller in eight Top 100 fiction categories.
When her fourteen-year-old daughter's life is threatened, the mother, Katie, takes matters into her own hands to try and protect her and inadvertently finds herself swept into an exotic, far from home breathtaking adventure. David Stein, as Senior Editor at Simon and Schuster said, "Strong writing, strong characters, solidly researched, exciting novel. Great love scenes, powerful imagery. A very strong novel..."
On a mission to take control of what has threatened to destroy everything that's important to her, Katie leaves behind her life in Kentucky horse country, where she works for a thoroughbred breeding and genetics facility, and finds herself on an unexpected dangerous adventure in Africa pursuing the world's most renowned expert on genetics, a doctor devoted to saving and bringing back endangered species in the amazing new field known as de-extinction and resurrection biology. To ensure accuracy with technical aspects of the story, the author enlisted the help of celebrated experts including Nobel Prize nominee Sir Ian Wilmut, who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for his astonishing breakthrough in cloning a mammal (Dolly the sheep), and Dr. Hal Broxmeyer, who pioneered work in a revolutionary new procedure.
USA/September 18: ***** A defiantly great read! I loved the characters. I didn't want to say goodbye to them.
USA/July 28: "***** Best novel I have ever read. I am usually a follower of Danielle Steel, Nora Roberts, Jude Devereaux, but this novel was "FANTASTIC'...I could not put it down. Romance, adventure, danger, excitement, travels through Africa as though I was right there, African animals described like I was watching them, in the jungles, unbelievable medical information about cloning and how far was have come in that direction...Not a dull moment in the book...What a blessing to be born a true writer who captures every single moment that grabs the reader right in and doesn't let go."
Australia/May 9: "...reminded me of the best of Nicholas Sparks and Jodi Picoult...and I loved how the story paid homage to Ernest Hemingway's The Snows of Kilimanjaro, and the novel Out of Africa. Stunning descriptive writing combined with solid research, and a romantic backdrop leaps beyond today's category romance and adventure stories...very impressive, potentially ground-breaking novel for the serious, discriminating reader who wants more than a quick fix run of the mill story."
Canada/April 8: "Beautiful sensory writing. A sweeping story."
UK/March 23: "I was enthralled by this book & I couldn't stop reading it."
