A tragic overdose, an institutional cover-up, and human trafficking. When Dr. Brad Parker helps investigate the death of a patient at a Portland, Maine, cancer center, he senses a cover-up to protect the responsible physician. His suspicions are quickly confirmed when both doctors involved in the case are found dead. As Brad and his partner—FBI agent Karen Richmond— investigate, they uncover a hospital-based sex-trafficking operation, leaving them struggling to identify the man at the top before the victim count rises.

In this fifth installment of an ongoing series, Cooper deftly uncoils a complex scheme that not only involves murder, but also human trafficking. An often-exciting tale of medical malfeasance and wide-ranging criminality.
