      About This Book

      The perplexing question that popped up in the case of Pemberton Freebody was, why would somebody check in to a hospital to commit suicide? But the Long Island hospital surgeon testified that Freebody died of a self-inflicted wound. The insurance company was happy enough not paying off his $100,000 policy. But the Sloan Guarantee Trust and John Putnam order their own autopsy-with damning results. When unnatural death struck again, it was clear that someone was prescribing murder as the best antidote to hospital scandal.
