Seconds from Revenge (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781450039826)

From First, Do No Harm, Dr. L. Jan Eira catapults readers into the gripping continuance of his medical murder mystery. With the release of his new book, Seconds from Revenge, he once again engages readers with medical hero Dr. Jack Norris, whose life is put in danger once again when an old enemy returns- bent on revenge. Several heinous murders had been committed at Newton Memorial using an investigational drug, which eventually became known as 'Rat Poison.' This experimental agent for heart failure patients was discovered to have deadly repercussions. Blinded by its potential lucrative rewards, three terrorists proceeded to test the drug on innocent men with much loss of life. With Dr. Norris' cooperation with the authorities, one of the executioners was killed, the other incarcerated for life, but the third villain - the mastermind known as Simon Lagrange - is still at large. Having escaped the law, Lagrange is now back and looking for vengeance-with Dr. Norris as his object of enmity. The mystery plunges as Lagrange sabotages Norris' credibility as a doctor, taking away many innocent lives without remorse. Co-workers of Norris helplessly fall prey to Lagrange's sinister plan; nobody can be trusted, everyone is a suspect. Soon, reality becomes a nightmare when an unexpected assault was made on Dr. Norris' life, nine-thousand feet above the ground. It was clear that Lagrange would stop at nothing to get him. Is Dr. Norris ready for the worst when he fi nds himself Seconds from Revenge? An arresting denouement awaits readers as Eira takes them deep into the story, confounding them with unexpected twists and revelations.
