Product Description

Product Description

Young, talented, and ambitious, Dr Eric Najarian has all the qualities they're looking for at White Memorial Hospital. What Eric doesn't know is that he's being watched. And judged. An elite clique of medical professionals thinks he has what it takes to join their secret club. All the young doctor has to do is agree to play by their rules. But Eric has already seen too much. A missing body. An unspeakable mutilation. A brutal abduction. It's only the beginning of a terrifyingly evil plot, a sinister plan the group will stop at nothing to hide. And if Eric refuses to become their colleague - he will be their next victim...


From the Publisher

Another riveting thriller from Arrow's master of suspense

5.0 out of 5 stars A suspense thiller, full of murder,deceit,and a little love., 2 Aug 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Extreme Measures (Mass Market Paperback)
Michael Palmer's "Extreme Measures": From start to finish, Mr. Palmer's book kept me interested. The characters were well-developed, plot easy to follow, and the story full of suspense. The main characters, a doctor and scuba dive instructor, fall in love despite the terrible occurences at White Memorial where doctor Najarian works. Friends turn out to be enemies, possible enemies turn out to be friends (sometimes), and it seems that neither can trust anyone but each other and themselves. This book has a lot of medical jargon and some voodoo. I find that if I can read a book in one day, then it is worth reading again. I read this book in about 9 hours in a car so it is definitely worth your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read!, 17 Oct 2007
By theone&only (March, Cambs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I bought this as a throwaway to read on holiday and was absolutely hooked until the end. Fantastic plot, good solid characters, and very well written. This should definately be made into a film and I am now a confirmed fan - I will be buying more by Michael Palmer!

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprising excellent read!, 16 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Extreme Measures (Mass Market Paperback)
I am not one into mysteries OR medical-related novels, so this book was more of something to pass the time away with this summer..... WOW! I am surprised, it is a GOOD read. Palmer is an educated man... putrafication IS the only sure sign of death.... *S* and did you catch the little "pun" with Yossarian? *S* This is an excellent, quick-read. I am encouraged to look into more Palmer books.

3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat laboured
This isn't a bad thriller, but it's certainly not a great thriller. The plot's just about OK, but the ending is ridiculously predictable, and the 'best friend turned evil villain'... Read more
