The infection wasn’t supposed to happen, but it did. The treatment was supposed to take care of it, but it didn’t. Then Dr. Josh Pearson discovers why—his patients, including the former President of the United States, have been dosed with a different strain of the original virus, one that is universally fatal. The only chance for survival is treatment with an experimental drug, but the manufacturer might already have discarded its supply.
As if treating the President of the United States isn’t stressful enough, the situation goes from bad to worse when Rachel Moore, a nurse Josh is falling in love with, falls ill. With the nation’s eyes on him, Josh must pull off a miracle to save a man who holds a good deal of power and the woman who holds his heart.

Summary
Miracle Drug is the first book I have read by Richard Mabry but will not be my last. It is obvious that Richard was an MD by the very detailed medical descriptions. Dr Josh Pearson has just become the doctor of the former President of the United States which is stressful. It gets worse when he realizes that the former president has intentionally been exposed to a very rare virus. This virus is not supposed to exist in the US. The situation becomes even direr when his girlfriend has the same virus and there is not enough of the experimental drug for both of them. There is a little bit of romance, some political intrigue and a large dose of suspense. I read the book in one day. This book would be great for a book club. Josh is put into some interesting dilemmas that would be great discussion points.
Violence Mostly the medical violence but some shooting,
