With his explosive debut thriller, Isolation Ward, medical insider Joshua Spanogle earned comparisons to Michael Crichton—and wide acclaim for his ingenious blend of suspense, cutting-edge science, and raw emotion. Now Spanogle takes us into the dark heart of medicine to tell a terrifying story of a billion-dollar medical breakthrough—and the side effects it unleashes….

A former medical detective for the Centers for Disease Control, Dr. Nate McCormick had seen enough suffering to last a lifetime. Now he's left the CDC, determined to begin a new life with his girlfriend in San Francisco—until the vicious murder of an old friend hurtles him back into the world he left behind. While police hunt for a killer, Nate starts sifting through evidence, convinced that the dead man's research at a high-tech lab has gotten him killed—and has harmed dozens of innocent women.

With only a handful of clues, Nate soon uncovers a hidden link between his friend's employer—Tetra Biologics—and a dangerous cosmetic drug. But suddenly the stakes are raised. The woman he loves has been thrust into the line of fire, and Nate is running out of time. As a circle of treachery tightens around him, more women surface with agonizing stories to tell…and Nate is about to make the most startling discovery of all: a secret alliance between crime, science, and a billion-dollar industry—where some people have already paid the ultimate price for beauty.

From shocking evidence revealed under a microscope to the shattering testimony of a woman whose beauty has been stolen away, Flawless takes us on a terrifying, adrenaline-charged journey. Taut, thrilling, and relentless, it will leave you pondering its questions long after the last page is turned.
