Death Benefit
Death Benefit | Robin Cook
2 posts | 6 read
Pia Grazdani is an exceptional yet aloof medical student working closely with Columbia University Medical Center’s premier scientist on cutting edge research that could revolutionize health care by creating replacement organs for critically ill patients. But when tragedy strikes in the lab, Pia, with the help of classmate George Wilson, launches an investigation into the unforeseen calamity in the hospital’s supposedly secure biosafety lab. Meanwhile, two ex-Wall Street whiz-kids think they’ve found another loadstone in the nation’s multi-trillion dollar life insurance industry, and race to find ways to control actuarial data and securitize the policies of the aged and infirm to make another killing. As Pia and George dig deeper into the events at the lab, one question remains unanswered: is someone attempting to manipulate private insurance information to allow investors to benefit from the deaths of others?

Cook has an engaging writing style that pulls you right in from the start. If you‘re into the biological sciences this one should appeal to you. Pia is a brilliant medical student who, due to unforeseen events, has to solve a complex life/death issue. I really enjoyed this one. This is a really good work of fiction.

Great novel with a great MC, Pia. I do like medical thrillers and Cook is a master, in my opinion. Great entertainment though not his best book. #Sha2016
