Synopsis

Library Journal

In the midst of an incendiary malpractice lawsuit, the Center for Fertility and Enhancement loses its brightest embryologist, Dr. Tim Sullivan, in a freak traffic accident. When a bomb destroys the lab and almost kills one of Sullivan's partners, Dr. Luc Morgan, remaining partner Dr. Ben McKay, an ordained minister, and Marnie Sullivan, Tim's widow, begin to piece together discrepancies involving Tim's determination to cure akenosis, a disease affecting his uncle, the President of the United States. As a Machiavellian plot comes to light, everyone connected to the clinic is in danger. Cutrer and Glahn, authors of two books on marriage and infertility, delve into the controversial world of cloning and genetics in relation to God's plan while offering a satisfying medical thriller suitable for most collections.

This book deals with up-to-date medical procedures and ethics subjective of science versus God. The characters are intelligent, cutting edge medical professionals. . . . The book very clearly presents the gospel through an interesting storyline. Some of the characters view science as their 'god,' which we can see today in our society, through the past teachings of Darwin and the like. In all,Lethal Harvest is an easy read. You will be engrossed in the plot while the characters deal with modern ethical, moral and Christian issues. Of course, they don't solve it all . . . hence the follow up book,Deadly Cure.

A neuron-tingling, synapse-twisting thriller. Lethal Harvest brought me to the cutting edge of today's news, and wrapped it in a challenging Christian world view.
