In the wake of his beloved wife's death, Detective Chris Ravello's life is in shambles. Overwhelmed by grief and dogged by an unrelenting, devastating disease, Chris abruptly resigns as the NYPD's Chief of the Division of Medical Crimes. But his hopes for a healthier, less-troubled life are short-lived. A harrowing near-death experience forces Chris to submit to a series of risky, ill-advised, and experimental treatments that will either cure him or kill him. As Chris' best friend, NYPD Detective Kevin Kennedy, investigates a series of perplexing and appalling deaths, he uncovers a disturbing truth - Ravello's cure has already killed four other patients. Just when all seems lost, hope comes from the unlikeliest of sources - an old nemesis making incredible claims: Michelle Ravello is alive and he can lead the detectives to her and their killer. But can Kennedy and Ravello trust one sociopath to catch another? And what is the terrible price they must pay for his cooperation?
Autorenporträt
William Rubin is a practicing physician who enjoys weaving tales of medical/scientific intrigue. Writing for him is equal parts catharsis, creativity, and escape from the rigors of a busy medical practice and the joys and challenges of raising a family. The works of James Patterson, Robin Cook, Michael Palmer, and Patricia Cornwell inspired Dr. Rubin to create the Christopher Ravello Series. Challenges and tragedies in Dr. Rubin's life, particularly the untimely death of his mother, provided some of the underlying drama, conflict, and turmoil for the series' lead character. When he isn't busy practicing medicine or crafting his next medical thriller, Dr. Rubin enjoys time with his family and friends, running, playing piano, and travel.
