Good morning, how are you? I wanted to bring you a new book The Cannastar Factor (The Trouble With Miracles) which I received a physical copy of in exchange for this review. Which when you finish reading my thoughts check out there press release here. Then leave me a comment and let me know what you think of this book and why.
The Cannastar Factor surprised me when I began to read the book because it focus on medicine with a tad romance but from the first page I became hooked on the story and couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen. If you like action then you will enjoy the plot. Including timely thoughts on the inner workings of the pharmaceutical world.
The characters were engaging and believable, the romance was just right and not to much to turn someone off. The book was able to Keep my interest from beginning to end. David wanted me to let you know this book is a recommended read for those who love multi-faceted thrillers. I look forward to reading the next book in this series which may also be medical mystery/thriller that is going to be fast paced and interesting.
Here is a fun fact for you. Father’s Day will be here before we know it and I belive this book is perfect for dads who enjo thrillers more than women although they may enjoy this novel as well. If my Uncle Chuck who was a nurse was stil alive this would have been the perfect gift for Chuck who like me loved to read anything he could get his hands on.
About:
The Cannastar Factor was originally published under the title A Cure to Die for. This rewritten, revised, expanded and updated edition is not part of a 3-book series entitled The Trouble with Miracles.
Alex Farmer, M.D. is a former drug addict trying to pull his tortured life behind him. Cyd Seeley is a brilliant botanist and rancher in dire financial straits. Inadvertently, they are thrown together when a mutual friend is murdered after developing an inexpensive, organically grown cure for viral diseases.
The miracle plant is called Cannastar and it cures all manner of viruses from Coronavirus and Cancer, to HIV and Herpes. Cannastar costs next to nothing to grow, returns the hopelessly ill to good health, and threatens to bankrupt the pharmaceutical industry. Big Pharma will stop at nothing to keep it off the market.
Aided by faithful Native Americans from the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana and the Navaho Nation in Arizona, Cyd and Alex fight to grow Cannastar and bring it to a desperate world. Their harrowing and perilous journey ranges from the Rocky Mountain wilderness, to the political corruption of Washington D.C., to the jungles of Mexico, to the deserts of Southwest.
With mystery and suspense, The Cannastar Factor is part adventure and part love story; a timely thriller that unfolds with endless surprises and heartwarming relationships; an epic novel about the resolute passions of two people who stand against a broken world.
