Sinopsis

When tragedy brings Merrin McKenzie back to St Ives, she knows adjusting might take time, even with the comfort of Christmas back in her hometown. Stepping back from her career as a solicitor, she agrees to clean holiday rentals for her friends who own cottages nearby. She anticipates dirty laundry and sandy floors, but she didn't sign up for a dead body, neatly tucked up in one of the guest beds.

The police are baffled by the young man's identity and the strangeness of his death. For Merrin, however, coincidences are beginning to stack up. Even though Inspector Louis Peppiatt is sceptical of her theories, something sinister is hiding beneath the festive surface of this charming seaside town. As the case unfolds, a dark side to the Cornish coast emerges.

Now that she's solved her sister's murder, Hallie Michaels has left the army and isn't sure what to do next. Her relationship with deputy Boyd Davies is tentative, there's still distance between her and her father, and she needs a job. The good news is, she hasn't seen a ghost in weeks. All that changes when she gets a call asking her to help an elderly neighbor who is being stalked by black dogs, creatures from the underworld that are harbingers of death. When a black dog appears, Hallie learns, a reaper is sure to follow. And if the dark visions she's suddenly receiving are any indication, it looks like the reaper is now following her. Meanwhile, strange events herald the arrival of ghosts from Boyd's past, ghosts the young deputy isn't ready to face. Refusing Hallie's help, Boyd takes off to deal with the problem on his own, only to find that he's facing something much larger and more frightening than he'd imagined. Stalked by a reaper and plagued by dark visions, Hallie finds she must face her fears and travel into Death's own realm to save those she most loves.

    The Covid Murders is a medical thriller that also explores what is wrong with American health care and how to fix it. The second in The Irv Tinsley Health Policy Detective series picks up where the acclaimed The Theory of Irv: An American Health Policy Detective Story left off.  
    The Covid Murders begins with a dead body: an unfortunate patient who dies on an operating room table in a suburban Nashville, Tennessee hospital. Thomas Baker’s open-heart surgery goes wrong, unleashing forces inside the hospital and out that threaten the public’s health.  It matters that Thomas Baker is a “very important person” in the community. 
    Our story’s central hero, Irv Tinsley, is brought into the investigation of Baker’s death through his friendship with the Hospital's new administrator.  Their investigation soon encounters big problems, including questions about other suspicious deaths at the Hospital.  Could they all be explained by Covid?  Or were these just the result of medical errors? Or is there a systematic care problem at play that threatens future patients? Or could it be something even worse? 
    The quest for truth also runs into political complications of the highest order, not just in Nashville but Washington, D.C.  The future of American health policy confronts our heroes! You may come away from this read believing that we are on the path of destruction, that is if we don’t assert control over the health care system and the politics that surround it.   
    Readers will discover an entertaining way to access the complex issues of American health policy and politics through this cross over genre that adds these important health policy questions to the traditional medical thriller genre. Listen today!
