The Power (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781490432465)

What would you do if you had the power to heal but it only brought you personal destruction and ruin? Would you still use it? When a street shaman meets a horrific demise on Dr. Austin MacLean's ER table, Austin soon discovers a raw and irrepressible power. But when this power inflicts traumatic effects on three chronically ill children, families rush to accuse him, his colleagues condemn him, and the police begin to investigate in this affluent New Jersey beach town....and so do others when the children begin to show inconceivable progress. Dara Kleows, a local reporter, is the first to connect the children's gradual healings back to Austin. The two develop a deep bond but Austin remains uncertain as to what this beautiful woman wants. Is she just after a story, or more? There are those who covet Austin's "power" and at any cost, while Dara is more concerned by Austin's headlong march toward his own perdition. What if you had the power to heal but people condemned you and suspected it's use? Would you still use it? Read THE POWER. You just might need it someday when you meet the One, or if that One becomes you. THE POWER is a heart-quickening 75,000-word novel that will thrill Michael Crichton fans and that T.C. Boyle readers will find wickedly smart. It is also being considered for cable television and movie rights.
