Summary
After years of prosecuting hard-core criminals, rising legal star Alan Bell took a private sector job in South Florida's newest skyscraper. Suddenly, he suffered such bizarre medical symptoms, doctors suspected he'd been poisoned by the Mafia. Bell's rapidly declining health forced him to flee his glamorous Miami life to a sterile "bubble" in the remote Arizona desert.
As his career and marriage dissolved, Bell pursued medical treatments in a race against time, hoping to stay alive and raise his young daughter, his one desperate reason to keep going. He eventually discovered he wasn't poisoned by a criminal, but by his office building. His search for a cure led him to discover the horrifying truth: his tragedy was just the tip of the iceberg. Millions of people fall ill and die each year because of toxic chemical exposures - without knowing they're at risk.
Stunned by what he discovered, Bell chose to fight back, turning his plight into an opportunity. Despite his precarious health, he began collaborating with scientists dedicated to raising awareness about this issue. Soon, he also found himself drawn back into the legal field, teaming up with top lawyers fighting for those who had already fallen ill.
Both a riveting medical mystery and a cautionary tale, this book puts a human face on the hidden truths behind toxic dangers assaulting us in our everyday environments - and offers practical ways to protect ourselves and our children.

Excellent
The medical facts of this book should be a compulsory read for medics everywhere. Knowing someone with MCS not enough is being done to help sufferers. The planet needs a huge cleanse of these toxic chemicals.

An interesting and well written programme.
I was initially sceptical about the subject matter but found the story compelling and convincing. It has opened my eyes to the different requirements for testing

Compelling
A truly valuable book. Alan is a hugely insipring and strong indvidual who has powered through his personal battles to make a positive impact. I enjoyed every minute of his story, which was narrated beautifully.
