PROMISE OF PROTECTION
A Medical Conspiracy Thriller
What secrets could drive a father to reach out to his son after 25 years of silence?
Family secrets. Global consequences.
"A short trip to see his estranged father turns into two weeks and a story that holds your interest to the end. It is filled with surprises at every turn. Her descriptions are vivid." — Reader
Joe Tenning built his life as far from his father as he could get — a vineyard in Arizona, twenty-five years of silence, an entire country in between. Then a call from a Texas nursing home pulls him back, and within days, his father is dead.
What Joe finds in the aftermath isn't grief or closure. It's his father's hidden research — and the people who will do anything to keep it buried with him. With help from the elusive Dr. Lillian Kent, he works to unravel a conspiracy that threatens far more than one family, while a relentless adversary closes in.
He came for answers about the man he never understood. He stayed because thousands of lives now depend on what that man left behind — and because some debts outlive the people who owed them.
A medical conspiracy thriller about family, legacy, and what it really means to protect the people we love.
“Wonderful and heart-warming read that left me at the edge of my seat until the end. I was not disappointed! I strongly recommend this book.”
REVIEWS
“I also would like this to be made into a movie. Reminiscent of a John Grisham novel, you experience unexpected twists and turns. You can’t see where a resolution will present itself until the end. Good read!”
“A short trip to see his estranged father turns into two weeks and a story that holds your interest to the end. It is filled with surprises at every turn. Her descriptions are vivid.”
“The story line was fast and furious! Each person presented had a story to tell. The wine tasting portion was a genius addition!”
“Having been published in 2014, PROMISE OF PROTECTION by author Diane M Dresback was somewhat prophetic and still a great read for today. Her book provides hope, not doom. There is hope the villains are caught, stopped and persecuted. There’s hope that medical research and development can be ahead of all evil diseases and that true immunity from all disease can be found. PROMISE OF PROTECTION is an endearing novel as a young man confronts his past to move on in regards to his father, his small town biases, and his past perceptions. The scientific based, corporate greed, perceptions and twists adds to this sci-fi thriller. This book is definitely a must read!”

READ CHAPTER 1
““Don’t spill it, don’t spill it,” I muttered as I carried a bed tray upstairs yet again. Balancing a tray of brimming wine glasses without spilling a drop was not a problem, but with soup...a different story.
That day might have been different. Carefully, I pushed the bedroom door open with my boot, smiling triumphantly. My girlfriend dozed, not aware of the feat I’d finally accomplished.
Pausing, I took in Kara’s beauty. Even when sick, she was beautiful. Long dark hair fell around her slender shoulders as she sat propped up in bed, surrounded by fluffy pillows. Her forehead was damp with fever sweat, a white tissue wadded in her hand. Her nose red and raw from endless tissue contact, despite the ‘ultra-soft’ quality claimed on the box.
Walking closer, she opened those bright blue eyes—those eyes that had instantly attracted me to her the first day we met six years earlier.
