Synopsis

A pharmaceutical "whistleblower" is murdered. Within hours, Health Commissioner, Dr. Jonathan Rogers is shot after interviewing with the President of the United States for the position of U.S. Surgeon General. Rogers awakens from surgery with a shocking medical finding and soon discovers that he's been targeted by a sinister cult known, inexplicably, as The Health Club. A nightmarish scheme, hatched by a ruthless club of top ranking governmental officials, corporate officers and practicing physicians in key positions of authority, to unleash a deadly drug threatens the lives of thousands. Rogers is given a life or death ultimatum by The Health Club. His family will die if he tries to stop them from covering up a mass murder. But, if he looks the other way, he achieves his dream of becoming the U.S. Surgeon General and his family is spared. What choice does he make? Can he trust The Health Club if he chooses to make a pact with the devil? In Terminal Neglect, it's never a question of whether the Health Club will kill. It's only a matter of whether anyone is willing to risk sacrificing their life and those closest to them to dare to stop their wicked march for insatiable greed and cold-blooded power.

Under the control of scurrilous drug lord, The Health Club has infiltrated the highest levels of political and corporate powers in America by marketing a new blockbuster drug in spite of clinical trials which results in the deaths of patients.

A refusal to join The Health Club will result in an early grave for his wife and daughter. An acceptance will mean that thousands of innocent patients taking the killer drug will die.
