FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The endless journey of man to find
immortality might just be found in the
science of nanotechnology.
Miami Beach, FL, June 8, 2009 - In
this modern, scientific world we live in we
deal with facts and theories that are often
in conflict with spiritual and religious
notions. That was before Jennifer Valoppi
wrote Certain Cure (Murray Hill
Press) – an outstanding medical/religious
thriller that combines science and ancient
prophecies, and was voted the #1
best-selling Techno-thriller on Amazon and
the National Best Books 2008 Award-Winning
Finalist in New Age Fiction. This debut
novel from the prolific imagination of this
multi-talented journalist and award-winning
author leaves the reader begging for a
sequel.
Certain Cure bridges the gap between modern
physics and ancient prophecies in a strong,
character-driven story of a woman dying of
cancer who allows a mysterious Chinese
doctor to inject a nanochip into her spinal
fluid that will direct her body to destroy
the cancer. This is done against the wishes
of her daughter, a struggling TV talk show
host, who later recants when she selfishly
realizes this cure might possibly save her
ailing career. The woman’s doting grandson
is concerned when a strange mark forms on
her hand that he believes to be the ‘mark of
the beast,’ at the same time as he
experiences troubling visions - clues that
involve a medical necklace, the only thing
found at the brutal murder of a Park Avenue
physician. It becomes evident that the
mysterious Chinese doctor may have
discovered immortality - the eternal
fountain of youth. Will the search for God
now become irrelevant? Visit the author’s
intriguing website at www.certaincure.com.
Adding another level of excitement and
authenticity to the non-stop action in this
novel is that scientists at Weizmann
Institute have recently developed nano-technology
for detecting cancer, and earlier this year
the Financial Times ran an article about
futurist Ray Kurzwell’s prediction that
technology could enable this generation to
live forever!

TIP SHEET:
Gotham Magazine: “Valoppi tackles the
conflict between science and religion in a
riveting read that recalls The Da Vinci
Code. Merging nanotechnology with ancient
Judeo-Christian prophesies, Valoppi sends
readers on a fictional chase through our
beloved-and ever mysterious-Manhattan.”
Comments from Amazon readers include:
“Loved this book… such a great read and
fast, a real page turner. If you like Harlan
Coben, Michael Connelly, Patricia Cornwell,
John Grisham - jump on the band wagon. Let’s
get Ms. Valoppi to write another book
ASAP….can’t wait for the movie!!”
“Ordered, opened and finished, from the
first page to the end could not find a place
to take a break. I strongly recommend this
book to all. Hopefully, Ms. Valoppi has
another book in the works.”
“About fifty pages into this book, I
thought, this is going to make a great
movie…fast moving thriller that is tough to
put down….read the whole thing in a weekend.
Characters are likeable and
well-developed…plot was Da Vinci Code like
but little more fun…had me thinking how much
we rely on various technological and medical
breakthroughs to make our lives better, but
what happens if they go too far? Where does
the line between progress and ethics begin
to blur? An impressive book…would recommend
it to anyone!”
“Adventurous, engaging and enjoyable –
didn’t want to put it down!”
“It is an exciting, edge of seat, page
turner. Amount of background work done on
this topic must have been immense.
Jennifer’s experience in the world of
investigative reporting and her news media
suave comes through in the book…found it
similar to Angels and Demons and The Da
Vinci Code – primarily for the style, not
necessarily the topic…comes together like a
Guy Richie movie. The underlying plot draws
you in and the short chapters make it a fun
and easy read. Look forward to her next
book.” |
