HEAT SHOCK by ROBERT GREER
|
SummaryThe author of the ac-claimed CJ Floyd series returns to the
world he knows best--high stakes medical research--in this
riveting new thriller ripped from today's headlines.Dr.
Carmen Nguyen, a Colorado emergency room doctor, finds
herself unwittingly drawn into the problems of a patient.
Luke Redstoke, a former Uranium miner, is dying of cancer
but is more worried about his prized gamecocks. Someone has
been sneaking onto his property and trying to steal his
precious birds. Now he has no way to protect them. Carmen
agrees to check on the birds if only to humor Redstone--but
she soon realizes the birds are genuinely valuable. A
former medical researcher, Carmen learns that the birds
raised on uranium rich soil hold secrets about strength,
power, and chromosome changes. Determined to honor her
promise to the dying man, she enlists a new friend and
former patient to help protect the birds. Very little can
stop the motorcycle-riding, Vietnam-born survivor, but a
small army of ruthless killers hired by a businessman who
can make a fortune from the birds' secrets are determined
to try.
