A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Complications arise when an experimental treatment for a critically injured man is opposed by Gonzales' employer, the SenTrax corporation.Show Excerpt that's all it will take.

Gonzales slid the shock-case next to the pilot's seat, kneeled and opened the lid. "Are you recording?" he asked the pilot. The man nodded and said, "Always." "That's what I thought. All right, then: for the record, this is Mikhail Mikhailovitch Gonzales, senior employee of Internal Affairs Division, SenTrax. I am acquiring flight records of this aircraft to assist in my investigation of certain events that occurred during its most recent flight." He looked at the pilot. "That should do it," he said.
