Book Description
"It began with a desperate call from Berlin…" Moments before Axel Mueller was killed in Berlin, he phoned Amy Knight in London. She heard the shouting and the shots before everything went quiet. Desperately, she called Ethan Harris who was already in Berlin on other business. As she joined him to investigate, they were soon under surveillance by the Berlin police and also in the sights of the German Intelligence Agency (BND), as they uncovered secrets from the Stasi background of BND agents, Huber and Schreiber. Axel had also been investigating the Intelligence Conferences, a group of European agencies planning the development of "UberKon" a covert super intelligence agency. As they are pursued by the police and BND, Ethan and Amy race to uncover the information which resulted in Axel's death while trying to avoid being killed themselves. In the process Ethan is shocked as Amy's true nature is revealed.

Book Description
A “superb, suspense-packed” (Detroit News) novel about one man’s attempt to combat the greed and corruption of a massive pharmaceutical company, from the #1 bestselling author “master of the medical thriller” (The New York Times) “A storyteller of the most daring imagination . . . chillingly entertaining and thought-provoking.”—Associated Press When young dancer Jennifer Schonberg became pregnant by accident, her feelings were mixed. For her husband, Adam, a third-year medical student already in financial straits, the loss of Jennifer’s income and the cost of the coming child meant he must drop out of medical school, so he takes a job as a salesperson for the giant, powerful drug firm Arolen Pharmaceuticals. Jennifer felt she would get the best care at the Julian Clinic as her pregnancy progressed, and it seemed a happy coincidence that the Julian Clinic was owned by Arolen. But soon Adam’s curiosity was aroused: Why did the computer print-outs on his doctor customers reveal so much personal information? And why did so many of them give up private practice for the mysterious Julian Clinic after returning from one of Arolen’s lavish Caribbean cruises? Alarm bells start ringing when Jennifer’s doctor, just back from a cruise, joined the clinic and started prescribing Arolen drugs which he had previously rejected. As Adam slowly begins to suspect the terrifying truth about the connection between the Julian Clinic and Arolen—and about the hideous evil perpetrated on the wife he loved by the doctor she helplessly trusted—he must fight to save his family and the soul of medicine itself. . . .

Book Description
Like Arthur Conan Doyle before him, best-selling novelist Robin Cook has turned from the practice of medicine to that of writing popular suspense fiction. Widely recognized as the Master of the Medical Thriller, Cook uses the medium of the popular novel to address a range of social issues: environmental pollution, gender inequality in the workplace, the risks inherent in the common practice of secrecy in science research, and above all, the ramifications of medicine's transition from profession to corporate industry. This study analyzes in turn each of Cook's medical thrillers, from Coma toContagion. Following a biographical chapter, the genre chapter examines the ways in which Cook's medical thriller incorporates plotting conventions and strategies borrowed from such popular literary genres as the science fiction novel, the murder mystery, and the gothic romance. Each novel is then examined in a separate chapter with subsections on plot, character, and theme. Stookey also offers an alternative critical approach to the novel, which gives the reader another perspective from which to read and discuss the text. A complete bibliography of Cook's fiction, general criticism and biographical sources, and listings of reviews of each novel complete the work. The only study of one of America's most popular contemporary novelists, read by adults and young adults alike, this is a key purchase for schools and public libraries.

Book Description
The author explores how the corporate transformation of hospitals, HMOs, and the insurance and pharmaceutical industries has resulted in reduction in services, dangerous cost cutting, poor regulation, and corrupt research. He sheds light on the political lobbying and media manipulation that keeps the present system in place. Exposing the shortcomings of reform proposals that do little to alter the status quo, he makes a case for a workable single-payer system. This is an essential read for today's practitioners, policy makers, healthcare analysts and providers, and all those concerned with the precarious state of America's under- and uninsured.

Ethan Harris’ life is shattered by a series of apparently unconnected events: the murder of his wife, Rachel, a hacking incident at the bank where he works and the theft of his belongings on the underground. When DCI Scott investigates the case, he finds that Harris is not as squeaky clean as he initially thought; he has big debts and a gambling habit. When the investigation determines that Rachel was almost certainly killed by a professional hit-man, the focus turns to Ethan as the possible procurer of the contract. Devastated, Ethan searches through Rachel’s belongings for some clues, bringing him into the underworld of GCHQ, MI6 and the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) in a chase across London and Berlin to uncover the truth.

Book Description
Once, in the Kingdom of Incendium, there were twelve princesses of the realm, each a dragon shifter. Each fiery and passionate. Each possessed of an appetite for pleasure that only her destined mate can satisfy. Twelve men are expected in Incendium, each with special powers of his own, each with the gift to claim one dragon princess's heart forever. In Wyvern's Mate, Drakina intends to fulfill her obligation as the oldest daughter by seducing her destined mate and winning her freedom. Troy's lovemaking leaves Drakina hungry for more, until she discovers that he's an assassin and she's his intended victim. Will his MindBending powers condemn him in the fiery princess's view or see him saved? In Wyvern's Prince, Gemma agrees to an arranged marriage with the crown prince of Regalia, to build an alliance between the two kingdoms. She expects duty, not love, but finds both when her new husband's discredited twin brother proves to be her destined mate—but Venero has been enchanted. Can Gemma break the spell cast upon her prince or will she share his fate? In Wyvern's Warrior, Thalina intercepts an intruder in Incendium's palace, allowing herself to be taken captive to learn his plan. To her delight, Acion is a highly developed android and she wants nothing more than to study him thoroughly, especially his amorous abilities—but Acion's presence on Incendium violates the law. Will he be exterminated before Thalina satisfies her curiosity? This bundle includes the first three romances in the Dragons of Incendium series, as well as three short stories linked to the series: Nero's Dream, Arista's Legacy, and Kraw's Secret. *** "I'm excited to see that Deborah Cooke has returned to the world of dragons in this exciting new tale of adventure!"
