In this novel, Dr. Thomas Stephens of eastern North Carolina has a debilitating condition of his hand. Ronald Reagan had it; Margaret Thatcher had it; but, more importantly, Dr. Stephens’ father had it and it contributed to his untimely and horrible death. Tom loved his father and he is driven to find a cure. A tribe in the Amazon jungles of Peru has found it, and Dr. Stephens is intent on locating the tribe. The cure comes with a price, but it may be more than Dr. Stephens is willing to pay (and it’s not about the money). This suspenseful novel was written by author Steve Atkins of Chocowinity. Softcover, 292 pages, $12.95; e-book is $4.95.
