Aids cure older book ( )

Un scientifique cherche un remède pour guérir le sida mais ça ne fonctionne pas et il assassine des patients atteints du sida et trompe les résultats de tests ( )

Somewhat apropos of 2020 if you substitute COVID for AIDS. Though the publication date of this book is 2011, it was actually written 20 years ago. What if there were a cure ? Drama ensues. it was a little over the top when our hero is kidnapped and ends up in a Thai whorehouse via a cargo airplane. Characters seem real enough and we get to know them. Fine book. ( )

If this was the first ever book of Harlan Coben that I came to read I would never even touch any of his books again. Yes, It's one of his earliest books and one should have patience. But the thing is: I have loads of patience for Harlan Coben. Since reading "the Stranger" I have worked myself through almost all his standalone stories and I love them (guilty pleasure, of course) but this piece just screams for en editor. At least someone to point out the basic difference between aids and HIV. ( )
