* KNOWING TOO MUCH COULD BE THE QUICKEST WAY TO THE MORGUE...

When skilled cardiologist Brian Holbrook suffered an agonizing sports injury he was left with an addiction to prescription painkillers that eventually cost him his marriage and his license to practice medicine. But now, at thirty-eight, he has cleaned up his act, swallowed his pride, and is ready to start over.

When the prestigious Boston Heart Institute offers him the opportunity to participate in trials of a new drug that could revolutionize medicine, he's thrilled. Vasclear may have the power to reverse arteriosclerosis, a heart disease and globally the number one killer. The initial results are so dazzling Brian pushes to get his own father, who has a dangerous heart condition, into the scheme.

But soon Brian is uneasy. The mysterious disappearance of a colleague and deaths of patients on the scheme compels him to ask questions. However, with billions of dollars at stake, probing questions could cost him his career - and his father's life.

For as Brian is beginning to suspect, knowing too much at the Boston Heart Institute is a matter of life and death...
