The cure

Description

"Robin Faraday, a hematologist in her final year of training, may not have the greatest track record with men (take David, her separated-but-still-married supervisor, for example); but she's a damn good scientist. So when her secretive fellow researcher Jochi winds up murdered, she bravely picks up where he left off--purifying an inhibitor that prevents cancer cell replication. Studying his notes, she begins to think his work might also be effective in preventing Rhinovirus, the cause of the common cold. After successfully presenting her research at a national conference, however, Robin's taxi is forced off the road, leaving her severely injured. But the detective assigned to her case considers it an accident ... and her spotty memories of the event can't alter his conclusion. When Robin returns to work, she is horrified to find her project falling apart--and that David, the man she once loved, seems to be undermining her on purpose. After several more near-death escapes, Robin realizes that whoever killed Jochi wants her dead, too ... But who? Her sexually deranged coworker Brett? Jochi's wife? Big pharma? Or David himself?"--
