About this listen

A scientist’s miraculous discovery pits him against a multinational drug company in a fight for his life.

Richard Parnell is one of the leading minds in gene therapy research, and he expects the job at Dubette, Inc., to be his first step to a Nobel Prize. But when he arrives at the American pharmaceutical giant, he finds himself shut out of the main avenues of research, isolated from the cutting edge in a way he has never been before.

To force his way into the inner circle, he must forgo ethics. By testing a new gene therapy on human subjects, Parnell hits upon something miraculous. A shot from his syringe makes AIDS victims recover and tumors disappear. The corporate heads at Dubette are thrilled, and rush Parnell’s brilliant discovery to market. But what is he to do when he learns that, far from being a miracle cure, his breakthrough may actually be a recipe for certain death?

Some books take a bit longer to get going than others, so I always try to push through the first few chapters. I really tried, but finally gave up halfway through chapter 16, this is unfortunately the dullest book I have listened to thus far. The narrator read so slowly that I literally had to crank up the speed to 2.25 for it not to be painful.

Dead End… an appropriate title choice!

Snooze fest with no follow through. Narrators voice kept putting me to sleep or maybe the story was just that slow.

Boring
