Lethal Hope by Robert Thornton

An intense thriller with global consequences, Lethal Hope by Robert Thornton is a larger-than-life warning about the danger of dictators, paired with the ongoing heroics of one undaunted doctor. After dodging assassins’ bullets and decoding the deadliest diseases known to man, Hope might be set to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, but if the fascist plot to take over the presidency moves forward, freedom itself might fade into American history. Though the storyline sometimes raises the stakes at the expense of realism, Thornton is an expert at building suspense, while injecting the story with timely insight into the current political climate, for another fast-paced installment of his Hope Allerd chronicles, which further establishes her as a uniquely compelling protagonist.
