From the Back Cover
Nobel Prize-winning scientist Sarah Collier has started to show the same tell-tale signs of Alzheimer's disease as her father: memory loss, even blackouts. So she is reluctant to accept the invitation to be the guest of honour at a prestigious biotech conference - until her husband Daniel, also a neuroscientist, persuades her that the publicity storm will be worth it. The technology being unveiled at this conference could revolutionise medicine forever. More than that, it could save Sarah's life.
In Geneva, the couple are feted as stars - at least, Sarah is. But behind the five-star luxury, investors are circling, controversial blogger Terri Landau is all over the story, and Sarah's symptoms are getting worse. As events begin to spiral out of control, Sarah can't be sure who to trust - including herself.

" [...] TEN MILLION FOLLOWERS -

WOW! [...]"
The prologue is shocking. A woman running away, snow and someone shooting. This doesn't bode well for this woman. After such a strong prologue, I want more.
Sarah Collier is our first character. She has a husband, Daniel. She suffers from dementia. She was a scientist. She worked on a prototype gene therapy to fight Ebola in Africa. She has changes in her brain that show she has Alzheimer's. She is a Nobel Prize winner.
Daniel is Sarah's "loving" husband. He goes with her to Geneva so that she can sign a certain project. I didn't like Daniel. He was getting on my nerves.
Is Neurocell a threat to humanity?
"Geneva" is a successful debut for Richard Armitage. I like the winter setting of this story. The heroes are diverse. I liked some and hated others. When reading "Geneva" I didn't really know who I could trust. Here, not everyone shot at the same goal.
If you like good thrillers, this book is for you. Here, good fights evil. What we see is not always true. When reading this book, be careful who you trust. If you trust the wrong person, you may die.
