About this ebook
The deadly hantavirus has killed hundreds of Native Americans, so when a reputable pharmaceutical company claims to have developed a vaccine against the deadly disease, it should be good news. But when ImmuVac asks Dr. Isabel McLain to conduct a clinical trial of the vaccine on the Blackfeet reservation in Browning, Montana, the proposal gets a distinctly mixed response from both her and the suspicious Blackfeet. Is the new drug truly safe, or are the Blackfeet being used as human guinea pigs?
Indian activist Monty Four Bear fears the worst, but Dr. McLain stakes her reputation on the trial's safety. Having taken over the poorly-funded reservation clinic after the catastrophic failure of her marriage, Isabel has fought a long, hard struggle to gain the trust of the wary Blackfeet residents of the reservation. She knows she risks everything she's accomplished by endorsing ImmuVac's clinical trial, but she's willing to take that chance if it means developing a weapon against the hantavirus.
But when corporate greed makes for questionable science, whom can Isabel truly trust with her life and her career --and the lives of the Blackfeet?

Reviews for Clinical Trial

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This was another book from the used book store that got my interest because it involved clinical research trials, which is what I do in my work. Well, clinical trials really aren't run this way...although there is a phase 1 and phase 2 involved, but using only one site where everyone gets the vaccine and the investigator hand picks all the subjects is a bit much. This will appeal to romantic souls that like to go for the bad boy. I was shouting at Isabel that Monty Four Bear was actually killing people and that really doesn't offset the fact that he's a fiery Indian activist TO ME!! I'm going to pass on any of her other books.
