| Synopsis: |
Praise for Race for the Dying..."Havill sets up a number of colorful dramatic situations that ought to please readers who take their westerns neat." -Publishers Weekly A newly minted graduate of the University of Pennsylvania Medical School in 1890, Dr. Thomas Parks heads to Puget Sound to practice trauma medicine. Soon after stepping off the boat he's nearly crushed to death and finds himself a patient rather than a physician. As he heals, he discovers that his host, a venerable physician friend of his father's, is running an elaborate medical scam, selling worthless concoctions. Limited to practicing medicine with one functioning eye, one hand, and one leg, Thomas grapples with exposing the family friend. To make matters worse, an epidemic threatens the town and surrounding area. Will the young doctor's first trip to the Northwest be his last? Steven F. Havill is the author of 25 titles, including four westerns, 19 Posadas County Mysteries, and the second Dr. Thomas Parks Mystery, Comes a Time for Burning. |
