Acerca de esta escucha

New York City medical examiners Laurie Montgomery and Jack Stapleton return in this stunning novel from the “master of the medical thriller” (New York Times)—a ripped-from-the-headlines tale of an innovative doctor’s dangerous downward spiral.

After a rough climb to the top, doctor and businesswoman Angela Dawson appears to have it all: a start-up—Angels Healthcare—that’s about to go public, and a controlling interest in three busy specialist hospitals in New York City as well as plans for others in Miami and Los Angeles. But then a surge of drug-resistant staph infections in all three hospitals devastated her carefully constructed world...

NYC medical examiners Laurie Montgomery and Jack Stapleton are naturally intrigued by the uptick in staph-related post-procedure deaths at these hospitals. Aside from their professional curiosity, there’s a personal stake as well: Jack is facing surgery to repair a torn ACL at Angels Orthopedic Hospital.

Despite Jack’s protests, Laurie can’t help investigating—thus opening a Pandora’s box of corporate intrigue that threatens not just her livelihood, but both of their lives as well.

Enjoy following Jack and Laurie and the situations they get themselves into.
Also the medical info is very interesting.

Riveting and action filled.

Narrator could have used a little coaching in medical terminology (not his fault) example: MRSA (We say, "mersa," vs M.R.S.A.")

shows how much the medical industry can be taken over buy it's all about the money. it should be all about the people.

Great who done it

Okay, have to say this one scared the crap out of me, since I am a building principal of a school and the situation and the media scare hype of MRSA in schools. The narrator is great and has me in the seat, but I would really like to focus more on what the medical staff is doing about this risk rather than the mob. Another good one that makes you think yeah, this can really happen in the medical field.

Scary

I much prefer Robin Cook's early books. Over the last several years his books are just okay. It is a decent story line, but it is bogged down by a lot of slow reading. Too much explanation on HVAC systems, engineering of a hospital, and boring conversation. In addition, the mafia guys were more comedic than serious.
That said, it was not bad and I did keep listening until the book was finished instead of getting a new book. There are a lot of better books out there, but also a lot worse too.

Okay, not great

I'm amazed at how the book rang true to life. The writer captured it well :-)

Wow

This one did not end as I posited it would. I can't decide how I thought it would end. Throughout most of the book I thought Jack was going to die.

Surprise!

I really liked this book! I've read several of the Jack Stapleton series and this was definitely one of the best!

great book!
