This is a pretty good medical thriller. Dr. Harry Corbett's wife dies on the eve of brain surgery and as she is ready to leave him for another staff doctor. Ruled a homicide, Dr. Corbett finds himself not only the prime suspect but the only suspect. He must unravel the mystery behind the evil insurance comglomerate that is knocking off expensive patients. A good thriller, but Palmer, like most thriller writers, abandons suspense for an over-the-top, unbelievable action-packed climax. The ending was contrived but I still give the book a thumbs up.
