Intriguing plot with unexpected twists. Casper's secret, Sydney's determination, and the potential to save lives create suspense. Looking forward to discovering the answers and unraveling the mystery.

Since the book was written before Covid-19, I would certainly like to read the book to compare it with the author's research at that time. The review was written with such enthusiasm that it made me even more interested in reading it.

The stark comparison between the Seneca Scourge and the 1918 influenza epidemic, particularly the staggering 75% death rate, is both chilling and thought-provoking. The book's portrayal of the healthcare system's struggle to cope with the rapidly spreading illness and the personal toll it takes on Sydney and her friends is sure to elicit empathy from readers.

I love your review. It maintains a certain thrill as if a person is reading the actual book. The book's storyline is intriguing and a fusion of a medical book and sci-fi promises to be amazing.

Thanks for the review, it sounds like a great medical thriller that's so much more than that. I've put it on my ''to read'' list, hoping I'll find some time to read it. It will be interesting to see what it is about, the concept seems very refreshing and unique.

Your review was expressive and down to earth. I like your honesty about how you feel about medical books. Everyone apart from medics dislike medical books. It's great to see that you found the book helpful in the end.
