Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award (ABNA); Semi-Finalist!
Dagney Hamilton, a pharmaceutical scientist, leads a team of researchers
working to create a promising new drug therapy to stem the mounting tide of
obesity. When her employer cancels the project in a sudden and unexplained
announcement, she suspects foul play-and finds herself swept up in a
tornado of powerful, unseen forces.
A rash of mysterious but seemingly unrelated deaths of those associated with
the project soon follows. With billions of dollars and presidential re-election at
stake, big business, big politics, and big money will stop at nothing-including
multiple murders-to protect their interests.
As a decorated police detective in a previous career, Dagney cannot be
bribed, threatened, or intimidated into silence or submission. Or so she thinks.
But now, she must face her deepest fears and dimly-lit past as she gathers the
courage to confront the people who want her dead.
Dagney and her wisecracking detective buddy, Mark Stone, join forces with
attorney Wendy Rothstein in a campaign against greed, corruption, and
improper influence. Together, they must solve the mystery of why curing
obesity and saving millions of lives from conditions like heart disease, stroke,
and diabetes is not an admirable accomplishment and might even get one
killed.
Dagney is forced to use all her wits and courage to stay alive, find the
answers, bring those who would suppress the story to justice, and ultimately
find a way to unleash the life-saving benefits of a game-changing drug.
Ripped from today's headlines, Ockham's Razor grabs the reader and never
lets go on a rapid-fire, page-turning journey through the science and politics of
new drug therapy-and the dark, vicious, and murderous underbelly of Wall
Street avarice.
