Queen of Hearts

By Marcus Steele

Michael Hawke, a brilliant physician and attorney, is still recovering from his last adventure--throwing himself into his work with a vengeance and trying to put it all behind him. When drug company rep Lizzie Lehrman, the mistress of one of Hawke's friends, is murdered, however, Hawke finds himself drawn into the investigation. With the help of his friends--Chen Schmidt, Hawke's billionaire playboy sidekick, and Jimmy Terver, a neo-Nazi turned humanitarian--the good doctor is determined to figure out who killed Lizzie. It isn't long before the group realizes that they're facing corporate corruption from the very top of Phoenix Pharmaceuticals. Phoenix has been involved in some shady dealings with off-label advertising, and Lizzie was right in the middle of the scheme and apparently preparing to blow the whistle on them. But that's just the beginning. The company has partnered with a South American drug queen--a brutal woman who will stop at nothing to get what she wants and who will crush anyone who gets in her way. Hawke and his team may have finally met their match. In this mystery thriller, only time will tell if Hawke and his team can bring down the pharmaceutical company and its drug-lord allies and give justice to the dead.
