Implant
F. Paul Wilson
Young doctor Gina Panzella works for the brilliant plastic surgeon Dr. Duncan Lathram, who is hailed as the savior of Washington's biggest power players due to his revolutionary dissolving implant that allows incisions to heal without scarring. Though she respects him deeply, Gina grows suspicious of Lathram when she can't reconcile several mysteries: his shift from vital vascular surgery to more profitable plastic surgery, his refusal to accept medical insurance, his bitter tirades against a new congressional medical ethics committee, and his connection to two committee members who died in accidents after he operated on them. Her curiosity soon turns to fear when two more congressmen fall ill. Enlisting the help of Gerry Canney, a high school classmate now working for the FBI, Gina digs into Lathram’s past to uncover the secrets behind his broken personal life and his wrath against the congressmen. She soon discovers a motive for vengeance and a 'diabolically clever method for murder' in the form of a terrifying 'another kind of implant' in Duncan's arsenal.
