Vultures Nest (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781800745841)

Elliot Lumas is a US Army veteran and a studying intern at the VA Medical Center. All his life he has struggled with his mental health, going through bouts of depression and anxiety, and since his active service these problems have only worsened. Attempting to rehabilitate himself back into the working world of America, Lumas uses the writings of the Stoics as his guide. Just as he appears to start grabbing a hold of his life and setting it on the right course, everything is thrown off kilter once more. What at first appears to be an ordinary hospital is revealed to be an institution steeped in conspiracy, bribery, and violence. An intricate web of corruption exists in the hierarchy of the hospital, stemming from the very top, and it is up to Lumas, and the few he can trust, to bring this scandal to light.
