    [synopsis] => What happens when you find yourself at the epicenter of a global crisis? Bestselling writer Gay Courter and her filmmaker husband learned the answer to that question in early February 2020, just as they were about to disembark from the Diamond Princess in Tokyo after a dazzling two-week southeast Asian cruise. Weeks before lockdowns and social distancing became the new normal, the Courters and their shipmates suddenly found themselves trapped in a posh penitentiary. Confined to their cabin and its balcony, they watched in terror as more and more sick and contagious passengers were loaded into ambulances and the world's press swarmed the port...With the help of the global media and some well-placed connections, they managed to influence high-ranking U.S. government officials to bring everyone home to safety. Quarantine! is the insider's book on a suspenseful real-life drama recounting Gay and Phil's twelve-day ordeal aboard ship, their tenacious efforts to get the U.S. government to repatriate them and other Americans, and their additional fifteen-day quarantine under federal order behind chain-link fencing at the Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. The COVID-19 crisis has affected the entire world. In her inimitable, long-admired voice, Gay Courter tells how it feels to wonder if you will be the next victim. See quarantinediamondprincess.com for updates about the book and Phil Courter's forthcoming documentary, Quarantine! How We Survived the Diamond Princess Coronavirus Crisis.
