Publisher's Synopsis
Biotherm and GigaTrax, two Bay Area high-tech companies, are jockeying for medical market positions. Biotherm is in Palo Alto, California; GigaTrax is in Walnut Creek, California. With any merger, acquisition, or hostile takeover, some win and some lose. Carlton R. Herrick, a senior executive at Biotherm, fears the loss of title and power. He develops a diabolic plan to eliminate Max Becker, the CEO at GigaTrax. Herrick structures a bizarre scheme to take Becker out of any competition. The plan entails the involvement of the Azren Clinic for Exotic and Febrile Disease. Carlton Herrick learns that Corbin Neeley, MD, at the Azren Clinic is implanting low-frequency sound generators in the uterus of healthy patients. Herrick decides to add his name to his vindictive list. Dr. Neeley kills a Food and Drug inspector and escapes from Azren Clinic, fleeing across the country, becoming involved in illicit and illegal medical procedures. Trapped in New Orleans by FBI agents, he is imprisoned in Angola, Louisiana State Prison, in solitary confinement.
