Seizure

A thought-provoking medical thriller by Robin Cook that explores the controversial world of stem-cell research, cloning, politics, and biotechnology.

The story centers on Senator Ashley Butler, a conservative politician who publicly opposes cloning and advanced biotechnology while secretly suffering from Parkinson's disease. At the same time, brilliant researcher Dr. Daniel Lowell is developing revolutionary cloning technology that could transform modern medicine. When their interests collide, the two men enter into a dangerous arrangement that could change both of their futures.

As experimental treatments push the boundaries of science and ethics, unforeseen consequences emerge. The novel examines how political ambition, personal desperation, scientific innovation, and corporate interests can combine to create a potentially catastrophic situation.

Combining medical science with suspense and ethical dilemmas, Seizure is one of Robin Cook's most provocative explorations of biotechnology and its impact on society.
