Medicine Cup Dorian Gray meets the medical thriller in bestseller Clem's latest scare-fest when RN Paul Grant discovers that peaceful Harbor View Nursing Home is not what it seems. After a resplendent welcome, he learns a terrifying secret looms at Harbor View. Gradually at first and then at a quickening pace Paul's world becomes one mysterious event after another as unexplained deaths become more than coincidence. He soon learns that his new employer has a dark side, which plunges him into a nightmare threatening Paul's very survival. His quest for the truth will take him from the picturesque countryside of Cutting, Vermont, all the way to the deepest reaches of the Amazon jungle. And in the end, he must confront the evil before he is consumed by it... Microbe In 1947, the U.S. Army left behind a secret when they closed Ft. Miles, Delaware. A threat so deadly, they buried it 1000 feet down in the Atlantic Ocean. Now, sixty years later, an oil rig drilling off the coast of Delaware has hit something. Within hours, crew members are dying from a mysterious illness that kills unmercifully. On the opposite coast, Justin Flannigan, an estranged epidemiologist is visited by the director of the CDC who convinces him to come to Delaware to investigate the bizarre illness. But shortly after he begins his investigation, he gets another visit. This time from an eccentric old man who claims to know the origin of the deadly contagion, and soon, Justin begins to suspect there is more to it than what first appeared. It is evolving swiftly, becoming more deadly with each passing hour. As the illness spreads to the general population, Justin realizes that this one old man may hold the key not only to his survival, but to the survival of the entire planet.
