Strong Medicine

More about the book

Strong Medicine is the story of Celia Jordan, a modern-day heroine like no other, and her relationship with the people who work alongside her as well as against her-the cultured and wise Sam Hawthorne, the chief executive who never loses faith in her, but tragically loses faith in virtually everything else; the brilliant young British researcher, Martin Peat-Smith, who races against time to give Celia the breakthrough her company desperately needs; her bitter rival, the disillusioned scientist Vincent Lord; the unscrupulous senator Dennis Donohue, who is bent on destroying her; and the gentle and steadfast doctor, Andrew Jordan. A compelling insight into the pharmaceutical industry, Strong Medicine weighs human ambition in big business against morality and integrity.
