Just how safe is America's meat supply? Recent health scares and new public awareness have made this one of today's most controversial subject - and the basis of this most startling and important novel. When a doctor's daughter becomes infected with E.coli, the widespread dangers of bacterial contamination are no longer a subject for debate, but a grim reality. In desperation, he is forced to follow the trail of ignorance and corruption from the tangled red-tape of the medical community to the highest levels of the powerful meat industry. It is an eye-opening thriller that every American should read.
