The Boy Who Saved The World

In a city known for making halfmoon cookies and Tomato Pie, a quiet boy would make the ultimate choice. Nestled in the heart of Upstate New York, the city of Utica is a place of tight-knit neighborhoods, backyard barbecues, and Little League dreams. For best friends Andy Thompson and Frankie Garcia, life is defined by the crack of a bat and the simple joy of their friendship. But their world is shattered when Frankie is diagnosed with a brutal form of leukemia, plunging both families into a desperate fight for his life. As Frankie battles through grueling chemotherapy, a new, terrifying threat emerges on the other side of the globe. A deadly virus, swifter and more lethal than any in history, begins its relentless march across continents, leaving panic and death in its wake. For Frankie, with his immune system destroyed by treatment, the virus is a certain death sentence.

The global search ends not in a lab, but in a hospital room in Utica, New York. The hope of the world rests on the small shoulders of Andy Thompson.
