Hello Everybody!Michael Palmer (author of many medical thrillers) has graciously offered to give away ONE signed copy of his latest novel, THE LAST SURGEON which is being released on February 16, 2010.
Here is a synopsis of the book:
Michael Palmer’s latest novel pits a flawed doctor against a ruthless psychopath, who has made murder his art form. Dr. Nick Garrity, a vet suffering from PTSD—post traumatic stress disorder—spends his days and nights dispensing medical treatment from a mobile clinic to the homeless and disenfranchised in D.C. and Baltimore. In addition, he is constantly on the lookout for his war buddy Umberto Vasquez, who was plucked from the streets by the military four years ago for a secret mission and has not been seen since.
Psych nurse Gillian Coates wants to find her sister’s killer. She does not believe that Belle Coates, an ICU nurse, took her own life, even though every bit of evidence indicates that she did—every bit save one. Belle has left Gillian a subtle clue that connects her with Nick Garrity.
Together, Nick and Gillian determine that one-by-one, each of those in the operating room for a fatally botched case is dying. Their discoveries pit them against genius Franz Koller--the highly-paid master of the “non-kill”—the art of murder that does not look like murder. As Doctor and nurse move closer to finding the terrifying secret behind these killings, Koller has been given a new directive: his mission will not be complete until Gillian Coates and Garrity, the last surgeon, are dead.

I must admit that I haven't read any of Palmer's books. Natural Causes, based on alternative medicine, caught my eye on the website. I might have to give this author a try. Thanks!

No need to enter me, Dan. I'm dropping in to say thanks for the e-mail. I've got this posted at Win a Book for you.
I haven't read any of his books (yet!)...I think I would enjoy reading 'first patient.' Thanks for the opportunity to read his latest.

Michael Palmer is one of my favorite authors. He scares the bejeepers out of me, but it's always a page turner and I always come back for more.
Extreme Measures is one of my favorites.
My fave would be The First Patient.

I don't believe I have read one by Michael but my mother reads all his books she can get her hands on. Please count me in because I'd love this for her. I for one would like to read all of his books they sound great. In time I'll get to them.

My favorite book so far is Silent Treatment because it was the first one I read and the one that got me hooked. Working in the medical field gives me a strong interest in medical thrillers and Michael Palmer is the best of all I have read.
