‘The Alzheimer’s Cure’

Inspiration

(Note from Peter)

The worldwide cyberattack of July 2, 2021, sparked the idea for this novel. I’ve woven elements of that real event into the storyline, imagining how a Russian pharmaceutical company might have stolen research for a revolutionary Alzheimer’s cure. This book is therefore partly rooted in truth.

Lucy Lassiter has it all. As the daughter of Jacky and Bill Lassiter—owners of one of the world’s most powerful pharmaceutical empires—she lives a life of wealth, glamour, and constant attention. With a private jet at her command, a luxurious Manhattan apartment, and a beauty that captivates every room, she’s the darling of the tabloids, always surrounded by admirers.

But her perfect world shatters when she meets Oliver Corbyn—a man shrouded in mystery and consumed by a dangerous mission. He’s determined to recover stolen research on her parents’ groundbreaking Alzheimer’s cure. The trail points to a shadowy Russian corporation, poised to profit from a cure that isn’t theirs—and Oliver will stop at nothing to take them down.

Despite the undeniable attraction between them, Oliver keeps his distance, knowing that closeness could cost them both everything. Yet as they are drawn deeper into a web of deception, espionage, and betrayal, the line between ally and enemy blurs. With their lives on the line, Lucy and Oliver must decide: how far are they willing to go to reclaim the stolen cure? And what are they willing to sacrifice—for justice, for love, and for each other?
