Will I love Gravity?

Many medical thrillers are set in a hospital or similar setting, but this one is, I believe, the only one set on the International Space Station.

I found it so scary to experience one catastrophe after another in a place where access to help is so far away. I also loved the unique combination of medical science and space science, something that is rarely seen in thriller fiction.

I have a prejudiced preference for physician writers and the insightful medical fantasies they (we) write about. In her novel Gravity, Tess Gerritsen inspired my own imagination for the writing of my book. Her extensive background research is evident in the out-of-this-world gory scenes that leaves no doubt of the plausibility of a deadly microbe.
