Sleeping Beauty (1982) by L. L. Greene

Seemingly the only book written by co-authors Larry Levine and Steven Greene, this is a thriller about an NBC newswoman who wakes up an inexplicably changed person after agreeing to undergo experimental cryonic freezing until a cure for her rare disease is discovered. "Greene" pokes his nose into Robin Cook territory, but lacks the medical expertise to make it believable, relying instead on another Cook staple -- silly characters doing silly things -- to drive an underwritten plot to an unimaginative, why-bother conclusion. Not exactly a forgotten gem from the 80s.
