Marrow: A Novella (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781720133780)

When uninsured starving artist Court Stebeck is diagnosed with a rare terminal cancer, he hopelessly accepts it as a death sentence. Until a charismatic stranger, Dr. Harry Byrne, appears with an offer to save his life. Byrne claims his revolutionary drug will cure Court's untreatable disease. As long as the young man is willing to be a medical "pioneer." Transferred from a rundown city hospital to a state-of-the-art medical facility in the suburbs, Court undergoes an experimental medical treatment using a mysterious chemical compound and microscopic Nano-organisms. Within days, the procedure shows positive results, and it soon appears Andrasten might be the medical miracle of the 21st Century. But like most medical trials, there are unforeseen side-effects. Court begins to experience new pains, strange growths under his skin, and an inexplicable hunger that takes over his entire body. The trail of carnage throughout the hospital that follows makes it horrifyingly clear that the miracle cure might also be the recipe for making a monster.
