This book is published by Pan Macmillan India in 2019 and has 440 pages. This is Book 2 of Pia Grazdani series.
After completing medical school, instead of doing internship, Pia has joined a research laboratory called Nano in Boulder - Colorado, doing research in Nano Technology. She finds a Chinese runner with cardiac arrest in the woods, she takes him to the hospital but her boss and a heavy security detail arrives and whisks-off the runner. Pia begins to get suspicious and she can't stop, when something bugs her, until she gets to the bottom of it.
Why is the runner sick? What is the Chinese connection? What is Nano doing? What is the real deal behind it?
Pia has a troubled childhood in foster care despite having a gangster father. She has no friends and can't love anyone. She is very intelligent and gorgeous. George Wilson, her friend from medical school, loves her. He is also her closest friend. Paul Coldwell is Head of ER at Colorado memorial hospital. He and Pia develop friendship. Paul is the only one ready to help Pia in her investigation. Zachary Berman is Owner of Nano. He is attracted to Pia and can't digest her refusal. Mariel Spallak is Pia's boss and head scientist.
Well, as the title suggests, this story is about nano technology. It's about unauthorized human trials. What nanotechnology can do is limitless and has minimal oversight.
The story is not very interesting but you also don't lose interest. There are twists and turns. The Chinese connection is ominous.
