About book – Intervention
Itβs been more than thirty years since New York City medical examiner Jack Stapletonβs college graduation and almost as long since heβd been in touch with former classmates Shawn Doherty and Kevin Murray.
Once a highly regarded ophthalmologist, Jackβs career took a dramatic turn after a tragic accident that destroyed his family. But that, too, is very much in the past: Jack has remarriedβto longtime colleague and fellow medical examiner Laurie Montgomeryβand is the father of a young child.
But his renegade, activist personality canβt rest, and after performing a postmortem on a young college student who had recently been treated by a chiropractor, Jack decides to explore alternative medicine.
What makes some people step outside the medical establishment to seek care from practitioners of Eastern philosophies and even faith healers?
