Publisher Description

They’re one of the country’s most telegenic couples: beloved TV journalist Sara Lowell and New York’s hottest basketball star, Michael Silverman. Their family and social connections tie them to the highest echelons of the political, medical, and sports worlds—threads that will tangle them up in one of the most controversial and deadly issues of our time.

In a clinic on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, a doctor has dedicated his life to eradicating a divisive and devastating disease. One by one, his patients are getting well. One by one, they’re being targeted by a serial killer. And now Michael has been diagnosed with the disease. There’s only one cure, but many ways to die.…

“Coben adroitly applies the fundamental rules of thrillerdom (offer a raft of potential villains; keep the action moving at breakneck speed) in this highly entertaining novel…a page-turner!” —Publishers Weekly

"This was a great murder mystery type novel. It is focused on a handful of people who are all connected to an AIDS Clinic. Someone seems to be targeting the Clinic and it is hard to figure out who or why. There is a big twist at the end. It was an easy read and hard to put down!"

    " really closer to a 3.5 rating. this is a reprinting of a story he wrote in 1991, so you can tell that he has to set the context for the medical/political world of AIDS. even though it seems a bit clunky in spots and far fetched in other, he is a GREAT storyteller and i love to read his stuff.

    " I didn't realize this was an older book of Coben's until I'd gotten started. It's not bad, but it's clearly not up to the level of Coben's non-series crime novels of the last 10 years or so. The story is well-paced, but ultimately preposterous. One thing--Coben sure can explain pain better than anybody I've ever read. That's apparently not a new skill. "

    " Wow, Harlan Coben never lets me down. A truly gifted writer, keeps me riveted to the book till the end, never wanting to put it down. This might be an early book of Coben's but still shines with his masterful story telling. No fan should miss this book, a must read for anyone. "
