“We descend from a long line of motherless daughters. Always, at one time in our lives, our mothers guide us from Beyond. Someday you will hear your mother’s voice, as I once heard mine . . .” No corporation is quite like Harmony Biotech, the ultramodern health products dynasty based on ancient Chinese remedies. And no greater challenge has ever confronted its CEO, Charlotte Lee, than the series of deaths that strike users of its products in a single terrifying week. And because all the victims were known to be her enemies, Charlotte Lee had become a prime suspect. Her hunt for her nemesis will lead her through the midnight labyrinths of the Internet—and to a place and a time where today’s technology was barely a whisper, where the voices of her female ancestors will lead her to the secrets of her soul. Now, as precious seconds relentlessly tick away, Charlotte Lee must trust instincts deeper than she knows and a wisdom older than her years . . . as she fights to survive.

From Booklist
With a beautiful Asian American heroine, a cross-cultural love story, a dose of Chinese herbal medicine, and a fascinating look at the world of pharmaceutical manufacturing, Wood's fifteenth novel will appeal to those who like a hybrid of the mystery and romance genres. Charlotte Lee is the head of Harmony, a major player in the international herbal-medicine industry. Charlotte has taken the ancient Chinese remedies once concocted in her grandmother's kitchen and turned them into a multimillion-dollar business. But now three people have died after taking Harmony products, and when Charlotte receives a series of threatening e-mail messages, it's clear someone is out to ruin the company. Enter Jonathan Sutherland, former FBI agent, computer whiz, and--coincidentally--the man Charlotte has loved since she was a teenager. Wood has a tendency to be overly dramatic, but her slickly presented tale offers entertaining escape reading. Emily Melton --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
