by Chester D. Campbell (Goodreads Author) |
My rating:

| This is Campbell’s seventh novel of crime fiction. There are a number of strings to the plot and a sub-plot or two as well. They are all nicely balanced, in that the main crime, murder and Medicare fraud remains at the center of attention. Sid Chance...more | |
