Connections — Jim Goldmann

Connections tells the story of Gabriella Neumann, a research scientist and physician with a large biotech company. Though she's leading on a top secret pentagon project, she's desperately trying to find a cure for her husband Michael. He suffered a debilitating brain injury in a car accident and is slowly dying. Despite the forces arrayed against her she finds allies in unlikely places and develops the hoped for cure. But the results of the Ulysses Treatment promise to take them on a journey that neither could have imagined. Connections is a story of pain and profound alienation; and a story of hope and redemption. Set in the present day, Connections asks questions about the nature of love, greed, power, and faith. It offers a fresh look at the fundamental conflicts we see every day: capitalism vs. socialism, the material vs. the spiritual and ties them together in ways which will surprise you. Once you read Connections you will never think of that word in the same way again.
