Tess Gerritson is such a skillful, knowledgeable writer of medical thrillers that this book surprised me with what appears to be a similarly knowledgeable book about space travel. Astronauts trapped on the space station while a strange virus runs rampant. They are running out of time. The government has decided to let them die rather than attempt a rescue because of the danger if the disease--whatever it is--should get loose on earth.

Only Dr. Jack McCallum, about-to-be ex-husband of Emma Watson, the space station doctor, cares about rescue, but can he do it and will he be in time?

Probably isn't a 5-star, but definitely a 4-1/2 star. Gerritson is that kind of writer.
