"CONTAGION BY ROBIN COOK, READ BY ARTHUR ADDISON." "Dr. John Stapleton loses his ophthalmology practice to a giant HMO, then his family in a plane crash. He feels like starting over, and he does---in the anonymity of New York City. There he retrains in forensic pathology and buries himself in work. But when a deadly, rare flu wipes out hosts of people, he can't ignore his suspicions. Is that HMO behind a plot to kill off its more costly subscribers? Getting to the truth leads to Stapleton's unusual paring---professionally personally---with Theresa Hagen, art director at a hot ad agency. Together they expose the truth behind the killer contagion---a Machiavellian plot of sabotage. "A terrifying, cautionary tale for the millennium." (B-O-T Editorial Review Board) [from case]
