In-depth characters, engrossing plot and glued-to-your chair suspense all combine to make Deadly Cure a book worth reading and passing on. Deadly Cure provides fascinating insight into the benefits and pitfalls of medical research. Authors Glahn and Cutrer have written an emotionally charged book that draws the reader into medical ethics issues often not addressed in works of fiction. Their skillful writing helps readers understand the world of bio-genetics research. The tender romance between the two main characters add to the readablility of Deadly Cure. Definitely a must-read.

Cutrer and Glahn have worked together to generate an outstanding narrative depicting current life situations and the ever-changing choices that news breaking scientific technologies have to offer today. The co-authored drama brings home just how much we need to be involved in educating ourselves in the human costs and risks of these advancements. I first read "Lethal Harvest" from last year's bestseller list and loved the creativity of the plot and familiarity of the characters and was equally captivated with the story as it continued in "Deadly Cure". The reading swells with emotional dilemmas, as well as intellectual ponderings. The writing style flows comfortably, processes easily, and provides a purposeful and enjoyable reading experience. I can hardly wait to see what this writing team produces next time!
