About this ebook
Isabel Leon, the star of a survival reality show, thinks she can endure anything. But when she unwittingly gives an unscrupulous mogul a chance to profit from her murder, she becomes the target of a terrifying killer who makes nature seem tame by comparison.
At first left for dead, she is rescued by a medical research team that operates outside the law. She awakens to find she's the living proof of a breakthrough that can change the world. Some people would pay any price to control it. Others would simply steal the secret--even if it costs Isabel's life. As powerful rivals pursue her, Isabel must risk everything to protect those she loves--or die again tomorrow.
“Die Again Tomorrow held me captive me from the opening chapter—in which a murdered woman is subjected to a secret medical procedure that brings her back to life. From there the story takes off like a rocket, full of surprises, fascinating science, and vivid characters. If you enjoy the medical thrillers of Crichton and Cook, this book is for you. I can’t recommend it highly enough.”—Douglas Preston

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Isabel Leon, television reality star, is dead. Her body, washed up on Key West beach, is discovered by a toddler. Two ambulances arrive simultaneously, when she has been gone for seven minutes. One set of EMTs do their best to resuscitate her, but twenty-one minutes dead, they give up and call her death. The other EMTs are waiting nearby and agree to take the body to the morgue.But once the second group has Isabel’s body in their ambulance, things begin to happen. Dr. Horatio Quinn presses a button and the doctored (no pun intended) ambulance begins to turn into a small laboratory. Using X101, an experimental drug not approved by the FDA and developed by Quinn, is administered along with a set of complicated other medical interventions. Soon Isabel is alive. Although she suffers from fatigue, as is expected, there is no brain damage. The medical team who saved her operates outside the law. The Network, as it is called, can change the world. But Isabel faces a major hurdle. She recently “sold” her life insurance to save her mother from breast cancer. She herself, a high risk, underwent a double mastectomy to avoid the cancer from developing in her. Now that she will probably live a long and healthy life, her broker is furious. It will take too many years for him to collect, and he wants, no needs, the money now.The story begins at the end, with Isabel’s death and continues that way for a while. Readers get a chance to see the backstory so that when the narrative shifts from past to present, the transition is seamless. That’s tricky thing to pull off, but Piekoff does it masterfully. The story grabbed me from the first sentence (1 minute dead.). In addition to her “benefactor”, there are people who want to get their hands on the X101 and will get rid of anything and anyone who is in the way. A great thrill ride that I give 5 out of 5 stars.
