Book summary

When he was five years old, Corey Friedman suddenly developed a mysterious and horrible condition of involuntary tics. As his family went from doctor to doctor, seeking an explanation, Corey was given so many diagnoses and treatments that it became difficult to separate his symptoms from his side-effects. Bestselling thriller author James Patterson, along with Corey's dad Hal Friedman (also a thriller writer), tell the harrowing story of a devastating illness and a screwed-up health system as terrifying as any work of fiction. Despite the awful forces arrayed against them, the Friedmans stick together as a family, and the force of their love and determination is inspirational to behold.
