X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p style="text-align: center\;"><strong><em>T
 he Woman with the Cure</em> is a timely novel based on the true story of t
 he woman who stopped a pandemic.</strong></p>\n<p>In 1940s and &rsquo\;50s
  America\, polio is as dreaded as the atomic bomb. No one&rsquo\;s life is
  untouched by this disease that kills or paralyzes its victims\, particula
 rly children. Outbreaks of the virus across the country regularly put Amer
 ican cities in lockdown. Some of the world&rsquo\;s best minds are engaged
  in the race to find a vaccine. The man who succeeds will be a god.</p>\n<
 p>But Dorothy Horstmann is not focused on beating her colleagues to the va
 ccine. She just wants the world to have a cure. Applying the same determin
 ation that lifted her from a humble background as the daughter of immigran
 ts\, to becoming a doctor &ndash\;often the only woman in the room&ndash\;
 she hunts down the monster where it lurks: in the blood.</p>\n<p>This disc
 overy of hers\, and an error by a competitor\, catapults her closest colle
 ague to a lead in the race. When his chance to win comes on a worldwide sc
 ale\, she is asked to sink or validate his vaccine&mdash\;and to decide wh
 at is forgivable\, and how much should be sacrificed\, in pursuit of the c
 ure.</p>\n<p>Lynn Cullen is the bestselling author of historical novels&nb
 sp\;<em>The Sisters of Summit Avenue\,&nbsp\;Twain&rsquo\;s End</em>\, <em
