Riassunto

The Protocol, A Prescription to Die, by John P. Goetz is an engaging medical and horror thriller about the power of money, and how ambition can drive evil into the lives of unsuspecting ordinary people like you and me.Aequalis Health Services Senior Vice President of Operations, Barbara Nordstrom, is responsible for the national health insurance program’s bottom line for all United States citizens. Coldly ambitious, Nordstrom develops and implements tactics to make her numbers look better by prescribing something she calls, “The Protocol” to patients who would normally require long-term and expensive care with low percentages for recovery. Her rating system ranks each patient on her spreadsheet and when the cost of care overcomes the benefit, the patient diagnosis is changed to “U,” and the patient suffers immediate death.Her henchman Carl Titmueller, is paid per patient to dispose of the body after he trolls the nursing facilities and hospitals dressed as a Physician’s Assistant prepared to administer a death injection that will take the patient off of the cost column of the profit and loss statement.The families of the deceased learn that their beloved family member has died from natural causes. If there are uncomfortable questions, Barbara Nordstrom has ties to high-level government servants in the Senate, IRS, and other convenient government agencies she uses to divert their attention.When Carl Titmueller’s activities are discovered by technology-savvy Teague, who has entrusted his mother suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease to the caregivers at the SunShine Center, a Aequalis Health Services nursing center, he follows the trail to Barbara Nordstrom, and the fight begins.This first-in-a-series of Eat Teague thrillers, is part of a smart, provocative series written to addict and intrigue the reader with twisted and compelling characters and modern storylines. John P. Goetz explores a world of deadly circumstances through the eyes of Eat Teague, an unassuming brainiac who is determined to prevail in his intellectual war against evil. Upcoming novels in the Eat Teague thriller series include Eat’s Perdition and Eat’s Primordium.
