Review – The Cured by David Wind & Terese Ramin @TereseRamin @david_wind

The Cured is now The Whistleblower’s Daughter

Amazon / Goodreads

MY REVIEW

WOW. The Cured smacks of realism that is truly terrifying. Nanotechnology. Weapons of mass destruction. Greed. Abuse of power. Conspiracy. Rogue government agents. The characters are to be loved and hated. I love that the characters traverse the spectrum of humanity. Those that feel entitled and let their corruption run rampant, to those who will sacrifice their life to do the right thing. The story centers around the Kira’s family. She and her brother are a genius and on the run from those who wish to use them or kill them. Jeremy, a complete stranger feels a need to help them. He had suffered a crippling loss. Will this be the road to a new life for him? I love diverse characters. We have a lesbian with a cameo part and a boy who has Asperger Syndrome and went into a deep depression when his mother died. I will surely be looking for more books by David Wind and Terese Ramin.

GOODREADS BLURB

Dr. Kira Brockman’s father found the cure for cancer.

He was a genius. A miracle-worker. A hero.

Was.


When 4,000 patients died after Brockman’s cure, people demand answers. Now, it’s up to Kira to save her father–and his reputation. Suddenly, the man they believed was a hero is the pariah of the medical community, and his enemies won’t stop until he pays the price. Racing against time and thwarting Homeland Security and the FBI is more perilous than she ever realized. Will Kira save her father and prove his innocence—or die trying…

THE CURED is brilliant – I couldn’t put it down. What a cracking ending –
one of the best suspense-thrillers I’ve ever read.”
—Anna Jacobs, best selling
author of Heir to Greyladies and In Search of Hope

“From the first page, Wind and Ramin take you on a non-stop, life and death
race. An intricate but believable plot leads to breath stealing suspense as the
reader worries over the likable protagonists, thrown together by fate.”

Annette Mahon, author of the St. Rose Quilting Bee Mystery Series

ABOUT TERESE RAMIN (from Amazon)

Terese (Daly) Ramin (1953- ) is the oldest of eight children and mother of two. Much of Terese’s work grew out of staying up well past the bedtime imposed by her parents and telling stories to her younger brothers and sisters.

A brush with mortality made her pull up her socks and finish her first novel in 1987. It won the Romance Writers of America Golden Heart Award that same year. Since then, she is the author of ten romance and romantic suspense novels, numerous short stories, and the creator/editor/author of the charitable collaboration Bewitched, Bothered & BeVampyred.

With author David Wind, she co-wrote the medical-legal thriller The Whistleblower’s Daughter.

July 9, 2019 will see the release of her first urban fantasy romance, Soul Keeper (Book 1 of The Brotherhood of Shadows), co-written with Dawn Johanson under the name Cathryn Marr.

Terese has spent a lifetime rescuing the dogs and cats (and the occasional reptile and amphibian) that turn up on her doorstep swearing they only followed the signs that said “free love here.” She is positive she never posted those signs. She currently resides in Michigan with her husband and 4 dogs.
