Beat the Reaper - Peter Brown, Bk 1 - Audio CD - Unabridged Author:Robert Petkoff (Narrator), Josh Bazell Meet Dr. Peter Brown, a young intern at Manhattan 's worst hospital. He has a talent for medicine, a shift from hell, and an unusual past he'd prefer to keep hidden that is just about to catch up with him. Whether it's a blocked circumflex artery or a plan to land a massive malpractice suit, he knows what evi... more »l lurks in the hearts of men.
His morning begins with the quick disarming of a would-be mugger, followed by a steamy elevator encounter with a sexy young pharmaceutical rep, topped off by a visit with a new patient -- and from there Peter's day is going to get a whole lot worse and a whole lot weirder. Because that patient knows Peter from his other life, when he had a different name and a very different job.
Pietro "Bear Claw" Brnwa is a hit man for the mob, with a genius for violence, a well-earned fear of sharks, and an overly close relationship with the Federal Witness Protection Program -- and even they can't protect him from the long reach of the New Jersey mob. More likely to leave a trail of dead gangsters than a molecule of evidence, he's the last person you want to see in your hospital room.
Nicholas LoBrutto, a.k.a. Eddy Squillante, is Dr. Brown's new patient, with three months to live and a very strange idea: that Peter Brown and Pietro Brnwa might -- just might -- be the same person...
Now with the mob, the government, and death itself descending on the hospital, Peter has to buy time and do whatever it takes to keep his patients, himself, and his last shot at redemption alive. To get through the next eight hours -- and somehow beat the Reaper.
