As the tension mounts to the conclusion, things involve…well, more tension. Thomas becomes more and more reliant on drugs due to lack of sleep and excuses for stress. He continues to sleep with his assistant, Doris, and spends extended hours at the hospital to ‘try to get work done’.
He’s not fooling anybody.
Several of his medical assistants are remarking his increasing irritability and tremor…making surgery questionable. I mean, if a guy with really shaky hands did a cardiac bypass on you, your heart would look like chopped beef. Okay, maybe not that extreme. But the point is that the drug addiction is not only affecting Thomas’ love life, but also his career.
As for Cassi, she continues to struggle with depression and concern of her husband spiraling behavior. But, when Robert excitedly finds another SSD case, Cassi is eager to find out more about it with him. This growing epidemic of unidentified deaths following surgery is becoming more and more of a suspicion…
We also get a clue (as if we didn’t already know) that George and Ballantine are behind these deaths : at two in the morning, George’s car is in the hospital parking garage and the light is on in Ballantine’s office…at two in the morning…hmm…
so the whole development of this story’s plot has pretty much run its course if I already know who the culprits are. I mean, is there anything left to say? Or can they just catch the guys and get it over with. Well, I’m sure some justice will come out of the last chapter that’s left. Otherwise I will be thoroughly disappointed.

I haven't read many medical thrillers, but I always like an interesting plot. Your book seems to be quite exciting, so i might just have to give it a try.
