A serial killer is going after high-profile executives in the managed care industry. This thriller is about HMOs and the medical proffessions on going opposition to them. Well written with many "twists and turns." Many of the HMO horror stories the author highlights in this book are real!

Great book about managed care and hmo's and how far some of them will go to make money, lots and lots of money.

Since Health Care Reform is a hot topic today, this book (although fiction) really makes the reader consider what has happened to health care in this country since the Vietnam era. A crime drama and statement about the crisis caused by HMO's ruling the industry. I could not put it down.
