<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Gabe Singleton and Andrew Stoddard were once Naval Academy roommates. Today, Gabe is a country doctor and his friend Andrew has gone from war hero to governor to President of the United States. One day, while the United States is embroiled in a bitter presidential election campaign, <i>Marine One</i> lands on Gabe's Wyoming ranch, and President Stoddard announces that his personal physician has suddenly and mysteriously disappeared-and he desperately needs Gabe to take the man's place. <p/>Now ensconced in the White House medical office, Gabe comes to a disturbing realization: The President is not fit to run the country. Worse, Gabe uncovers evidence that his friend's illness may not be due to natural causes. Who could have administered such a blow? And why? The President's life is at stake, the safety of the world is in jeopardy, and it's up to Gabe to find the answers while time is running out...</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Michael Palmer</b> (1942-2013) wrote internationally bestselling novels of medical suspense, including <i>The First Patient</i>, <i>The Second Opinion</i>, <i>The Last Surgeon</i>, <i>A Heartbeat Away</i>, <i>Oath of Office</i> and <i>Political Suicide</i>.
