The Gift is the opening novel in P. C. Weber's Hanging by a Thread series. This four-book saga tells the story of Thomas Morgan, a brilliant but deeply tormented young scientist who sets out to discover a new cure for tuberculosis and ends up on an unforgettable journey in life. It is the hope of LGC Publishing that this sweeping tale of love, loss, sacrifice, and redemption will not only prove immensely entertaining to readers who live within the developed world, but also serve to draw attention to the global epidemic of TB that rages on beyond their borders. To this end, all proceeds from the sale of The Gift are being donated to the Stop TB Partnership via the United Nations Foundation. Patrons who purchase the e-book edition of this title will also be treated to a bonus preview of Betrayal, the second book in the Hanging by a Thread series.
