About this listen

A miracle cure straight from nature
A secret expedition to the deepest heart of the rain forest

When a rare plant living within the most remote reaches of the Amazon rain forest is discovered to contain a key ingredient for a promising COVID-19 cure, a high-powered pharmacologist teams up with a renegade botanist to locate and retrieve specimens of the elusive plant.

But the unlikely pair soon learns they are not the only ones who seek the valuable biological resource. When specimens of the plant turn up in the hands of a multinational corporation that begins offering the COVID cure for sale, the search shifts from the rain forests of the Amazon to the farthest reaches of the planet to track down a cabal of ruthless bio-pirates who place profit above all else.

Against the backdrop of a global pandemic, the pair of scientists race to locate and gain control of a population of ultra-rare plants with life-giving properties before they are destroyed forever.

Entertaining enough but I found the science a little unbelievable which meant I couldn’t engage with the story as much as I would have liked. A bit repetitious in places. Lacked the individual character interest present in his other books. Maybe that reflects the storyline of many different interested individuals and companies still destroying the rainforest with apparently no end to it in spite of everyone KNOWING it’s a precious resource. Also maybe written before the many successful immunisations and treatments that have been developed and so was a bit difficult to wholeheartedly engage with storyline.
