synopsis

Synopsis

A resistant strain of falciparum malaria accounted for significant US casualties in Iraqi Freedom’s early years. A special research study to treat this type of malaria involved a CDC chief physician and two New York specialists. These three individuals induce, rather than treat acute malaria attacks with added delirium to obtain inside stock market trader information. Almost a billion dollars were made until collateral damage with death and attempted murders draw attention by the NYPD and the CIA. Senator Clement, Drs. Ganucci, Krantz and Bellini use three war returnee malaria patients to milk the stock exchange and use murder, intimidation and extortion to maintain their scheme. Detective Furdis Nosh is a relentless redhead female sleuth who will not let go of the investigation. Former Special Forces Officer David Swanson is a malaria victim who wants out of the malaria study alive. He’s distraught over a colleague ending up comatose during one of his malaria episodes. The woman, Lisa Feldman, is kidnapped from the hospital as her memory of Krantz and Binelli returns. Swanson joins with CIA Agent Mallory Finder when Finder’s fiancée, Lisa Feldman is abducted. Senator Clement uses all means at his disposal to thwart revelation of his malaria-stock market scheme. Snipers, contract killers and deadly healthcare workers reach out with their lethal tentacles to prevent exposure. Nosh and Fender are not enough to probe and disclose the stock market assault.

Author Biography

As a retired physician I’m devoting my time to writing novels, memoir-based fiction and short stories. My life as an author of fiction began in 2003 after a few years at Toastmasters International delivering captivating stories and speeches. I believe literature should be educational, fun, serious, full of feelings and always with a touch of fantasy and a thread of truth. Like all my novels true lifetime situations are interwoven with suspenseful and intriguing story lines. My 13 novels and short story book bear that philosophy out. Reviews of my books in Amazon.com have been 5-star. Comments for WHO WILL WEEP FOR ME such as “high school coming of age makes the story feel authentic and make the reader want more” is typical of reader satisfaction. I live with my wife in San Antonio near my daughter and her family with four of my grandchildren. My goal as an author is to publish several novels a year with my novel portraying terrorism in the US, - OCEAN CITY HQ - recently published..

3 Deadly Doctors

Dr. Bergan Krantz is a psychiatrist manipulating malaria patient David Swanson's mind into accepting his amnesia episodes linked to his malaria attacks. Dr. Gail Binelli is Swanson's primary malaria specialist using a drug to precipitate his malaria crises. Dr. Alberto Ganucci is a senior MD at the CDC in Atlanta coordinating a national malaria clinical study and coordinating Swanson's malaria attacks with major stock market changes. The three MD's are the front line perpetrators raking in money from Wall Street information gleaned from Swanson during his attacks. There is one person above the three doctors-a US Senator in Washington, DC., who can cover up the scheme, including murder, when necessary.

Book Excerpt

BLACKWATER FEVER

“Dr. Krantz here.”

“Bergen, you are entirely correct. Swanson is thinking too much. If he goes back and reviews his past malaria attack episodes and finds a link or common denominator about collateral damages occurring, we could be in trouble.” Binelli reiterated Swanson’s visit.

“Are you talking about loose ends? We don’t want to eliminate Swanson. He’s our golden goose.”

“I think we should make a list of the people who we extracted stock market information from and find out if they have any recall other than the probing into their meetings with Swanson.” Binelli wrote O’Brien’s name and Feldman’s name on her notepad. “We can scratch O’Brien. He’s dead.”

“Okay we have about six people total in the common link with Wall Street and other security exchange associations.” Krantz hesitated and continued. “As you know we supplemented each malaria attack with the experimental benzodiazepine to ensure lack of recall. However, before we act and put anything in writing, we have to bring Ganucci into this.”
