RESISTANT
BY MICHAEL PALMER
  
ABOUT THE AUDIO BOOK:
They fight without conscience or remorse. Their only job is to kill.
They are the most ruthless enemy we have ever faced. 

And they are one millionth our size.

When Dr. Lou Welcome fills in last minute for his boss at a national conference in Atlanta he brings along his best friend, Cap Duncan. But an accident turns tragic when Cap injures his leg while running.  Surgeons manage to save the leg, but the open wound is the perfect breeding ground for a deadly microbial invader committed to eating Cap alive from the inside out. Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away, a teenaged girl is fighting for her life against the same bacteria. The germ is resistant to any known antibiotic and the government scientist tasked with finding a cure has been kidnapped. Turning to the Centers for Disease Control for help, Lou Welcome uncovers a link to a shadowy group known as One Hundred Neighbors that has infiltrated our society and is using our health institutions as hostages.  Like the deadly germs they can unleash, One Hundred Neighbors will stop at nothing to further their agenda. From the hospital corridors where anything you touch can mean your end, to the top corridors of power in this race against time, Lou must stop an epidemic, save his best friend, and face even his own most terrifying demons.

From the New York Times bestselling author comes another heart stopping thriller that will make you look at the world around you in a new and frightening way.

I love Palmers' books and this one sounds like a page turner. Very realistic and possible.

This should be very exciting. I love anything medical. I looked at the reviews and this is a controversal book. It is too bad there will be no more books from him since he has passed away. I always thought Dr. Welcome's battles with drugs and alcohol were convincing and this piece about him in the New York Times tell of his own problems with the two. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/08/books/michael-palmer-tormented-doctor-who-became-top-author-dies-at-71.html?_r=0

The medical suspense genre sounds kind of terrifying, but I will say, it sounds good too.

I got excited just reading the blurb about the book. His books are always thrilling. I guess I missed that he had passed away (or forgotten). Thanks to Carol for noting that.
