Story
Fritz Marschall knew that neither he, nor his friend, should really have been there. They, like many others before them, had been attracted to the lake by the many rumors that had been circulating. He thought of the endless stories there had been, of treasures sunken in or buried around the lake. He recalled the stories of the lake being used to develop torpedoes and rockets during the war. Looking out across the dark water, he wondered what secrets were hidden beneath the surface.

Story
The name's Daniels, Jack Daniels - just like the whiskey you know. I'm a private detective. And I can't help butting my nose into other people's business. It's what I do. You get used to it. It becomes a way of life almost. After a while it comes natural to you, automatic, like breathing, or eating, although not quite as enjoyable. It's a habit that I just can't break. I just can't help it. But sometimes it can lead you into trouble....

Summary
“Mr. Kendall, in the past few months there have been a number of doctors who have mysteriously disappeared, or whose deaths were either alleged to be accidents, or were suicides, or they were actually murdered.”
Kendall made a mental note to find out about these "other doctors".
“A number of doctors you said. How many are we talking about?”
Mrs. Eaton thought for a few moments.
“To my knowledge there have been at least eight cases in the past six months. There may be a whole lot more that I know nothing about.”

I enjoy this books, but have to admit to being frustrated a few times during this story. Tom came across a little too standoffish at times and seemed to be oblivious to clues that were completely obvious to me.

Diagnosis murder
It irked me that what I saw as blatant murders and connections the police discounted as random until Kendall pushed the issue. This us a popular conspiracy topic and I enjoyed this author's take on it. Kendall gets small compensation for his major finds, but baby steps with the law. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

Another great book!
I noticed in the last story I read by John Holt, he likes to take his time and establish the story and not just give you a rushed summary so he can get to the fast-paced action. He is methodical and lays out the story in a way that keeps you interested. I didn’t even notice that Kendall wasn’t even in the story until chapter 6.
There’s a doctor going around saying that cancer is killing people, cancer treatment is killing people and people don’t like it. People in high places or angry and it’s not just him it’s his colleagues and cronies that are popping up dead, looking as if they commit suicide or had an unfortunate accident in their own home. That’s what happened to Doctor Ethan, but his wife is it taking it lying down as a matter of fact she’s bringing in the big dogs she is bringing in Molly and Kendall, But first her and Molly have to convince Kendall it’s murder. Every time I read one of these books when I get towards the end I start getting ANSI know when I have another. But while reading this one I was so enthralled with the plot even when I wasn’t reading it I was thinking about it. I love these books I love candles humor parade there’s a great read for those who like medical thrillers, PI stories ET see.

Suicides? Accidents? Murders!
Kendall and Molly once again embark on a complicated investigation - multiple murders. Some of these crimes were initially concluded as either suicide or accidents.
It was too concerning though because the victims were doctors! These medical professionals were either dying or missing. and they have one thing in common - they were all working on something really important that would revolutionalize cancer treatment and therapy.
John Holt, as usual, managed to entertain me with his unique ability to come up with twists and turns that made me hooked until the last line. The narration helped a lot in giving justice, both to the story and the characters.
Highly recommended book!

Murdered doctors start piling up
When ex-cop, turned PI, Kendall is asked by a recent widow to look into their husband's 'accidental death'. comes across dozens of medical doctors dying off in strange circumstances. Most are put down to accident or suicide, but Kendall doesn't think so. Is there a conspiracy against these doctors, all of whom are researching or speaking out against 'Big Pharma' and believe in alternative cancer cures? Or is there something else going on?
The story here is generally a good one, with a good mystery that unfolds well, although it can a bit long in the tooth in places. The PI Kendall is likable - that right mix of knowing when to bend or break rules to get things done - and good at his job. The rest of the supporting cast are also fleshed out enough to not feel flat or just there for exposition. Overall it kept me interested and guessing throughout.
Narration by Mark Sando is good. He does character voices, and is well paced and clear. No issues with the production or narration. More than happy to listen to more of his work.
