Embolus

By Gary Birken

"Crackles with authenticity. The suspense had me racing through the pages." -Dan Donaldson

Welcome to the trauma ward, a place of healing . . .
Death is a fact of life at the Gillette Trauma Center, a prestigious Washington, D.C. facility that gets more than its fair share of borderline cases. At some point the doctors have all seen a recovering patient suddenly slip away as the result of a pulmonary embolus-a fatal blood clot that can form after serious injury. But lately it's been happening with alarming frequency to patients of a certain Dr. Runyon . . .

. . . and harm
Journalist David Airoway has been investigating, and the trail has led him to a secretive society called the Caduceus Project that will stop at nothing to achieve its goals.

Now David is in a coma-at Gillette. The police think he tried to kill himself, but his sister, Alex, a surgeon at the hospital, is about to learn that David had been making some very powerful enemies. It's up to her to expose the conspiracy-before Dr. Runyon takes care of her brother, too . . .
