"Like Payback, the first psycho-thriller by Philip Harper, Final Fear follows George Gray, reporter turned 'Robin Hood' who exacts his own brand of justice against villains as chillingly demented as they are dangerous!" "Dr. John A. Walker, the assistant chief of critical care at a run-down, inner-city hospital in Philadelphia, is hardly the healer he pretends to be. Nancy Abbott, Walker's lover and the top administrator at the hospital, wears an equally dangerous mask of deception. Together, they orchestrate fraudulent drug sales and steal corpses for a profitable insurance scam. Individually, Walker masterminds a terrifying "theater of operation."" "When a friend of Gray's dies mysteriously in the hospital, Gray decides to do a little undercover work and gets himself checked in as a patient. With the help of a fearless woman doctor, Gray is determined to expose the ugly secrets that haunt Clarke Hospital and will stop at nothing to see that justice is served." "Trapped within the eerie corridors of this decrepit hospital, Gray risks his life and follows a lead that takes him right into the skilled and lethal hands of Dr. Walker. Like the best of Robin Cook, Final Fear combines medical suspense with psychological terror for a thrilling roller-coaster read!"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
