About this listen
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger....
Monty Bannerman's father is a leading genetic scientist and Nobel Prize winner whose company has just been taken over by what will soon be the world's biggest pharmaceutical giant. He had some misgivings about their company ethics - but ultimately, he needs their money, and they need his mind.
Then a journalist comes to Monty's door, with a far-fetched story about the pharmaceutical company. She doesn't believe what she's being told for a moment - but within a few short weeks, events are making the apparently fantastic claims look horrifyingly like the truth.
Behind the respectable facade of the multi-national company which calls itself the 'World's Most Caring Company' lies an outrage against the whole human race....

went a bit off the rails at the end
interesting story overall, but I started to lose interest at the end.
there's a small mistake in editing about 3/4 of the way through which really threw me.
not a bad way to pass the time, and a very interesting idea overall.

great story
this is a well written story that makes you think. Content is actually enough for a series of books rather than one long one. Peter James is a great author and it always good to have subject matter that is new and not predictable.

Great audiobook
Very good audiobook. The story works very well as an audiobook and there are some creepy moments.

Great story - very long - struggled a bit
I liked the storyline - a bit gory at times - could be frustrating that it jumped through the years - easy to loose track and had to take it back a chapter a couple of times, just to understand what was going on.
It did keep me gripped though
Great narration - accents were spot on and totally believable.
I would recommend this - having not read the author before - I will try another to see how I get on .

Peter James' finest quality work to date.
This book is jaw droppingly BRILLIANT. It ticks all the right boxes. The story is interesting, exciting, unusual and thrilling. The plot works well, the characters are believeable and you build a great connection with them. The narration is well performed.
