Medicine Money and Murder

By Anne Pettigrew

MEDICAL MURDER IN AMERICA

It's summer 1971 in New Jersey. Scottish medical students Mhairi and Laura are on work placements in the USA. But very soon they realise all is not well in the outwardly peaceful and prosperous Ellis Memorial Hospital.
Though finding commercialised US healthcare alien to their NHS experience, they are more troubled by sinister incidents, strained staff relationships and the mysterious disappearance of a charity patient.
Just who are Dr Juan Mendoza's Sunday Morning patients with their special nurses?
Why does the abrasive and aloof Dr Elias van Lindholm hold such sway?
And exactly what 'research' is Elias doing with their fellow student, Frankie Cooke?
When a patient vanishes, another is nearly murdered, and one of the students is killed, Mhairi and her US boyfriend John must unravel a web of lies, blackmail and murder, before the killer strikes again.
Medicine, Money and Murder leads the reader through a thrilling thought-provoking tale of crime, ethical dilemmas, romance and cultural clashes, before ending in a final explosive climax.
