Clinical Trials and Death

Fleming Investigations, Book 8
By Patti Larsen

Finding a cure for cancer can be murder… and Fee is about to discover just how deadly the search for answers can become.

When Reading’s medical examiner, Dr. Lloyd Aberstock, asks Fiona Fleming to investigate a clinical trial, Fee doesn’t hesitate to take the case. With his beloved Bernice’s life hanging in the balance, Lloyd needs answers, and Fee is determined to find them.

Working alongside her husband, Crew, Fee begins digging into the trial and quickly uncovers a troubling web of deceit, sabotage, and corporate espionage. Someone has a great deal to lose if the truth comes out, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Then one of the trial’s doctors turns up dead.

Now Fee must investigate a murder while keeping her own inquiries under the radar. Is the experimental drug a fraud, or has someone gone to deadly lengths to protect it? And if the death of its creator brings the trial to an abrupt end, could Bernice lose her chance at recovery?

With lives, livelihoods, and the future of a promising treatment on the line, Fee must separate fact from deception before another life is lost.

A promising medical breakthrough. A deadly corporate secret. And a murder with life-changing consequences.

Join Fiona Fleming for another compelling Fleming Investigations cozy mystery, where the search for truth leads into dangerous territory and the most important clues may be the ones someone desperately wants to bury.
