The Carbon Murder — Camille Minichino

A CURE TO KILL FOR

Retired physicist turned police consultant Gloria Lamerino turns her talents to the cutting-edge world of nanotechnology and the development of "smart medicines." It's a field that offers hope, even miracles, for patients. But for Gloria and her goddaughter Mary Catherine...it's murder.

Mary Catherine, MC to her friends, worked for a Houston-based carbon research company riding the innovative and very profitable nanotech revolution. She quit to return home to Revere, Massachusetts, but it seems that unfinished -- and deadly -- business has followed her. The body of a woman connected to MC's life back in Houston is found nearby, and now she is being stalked.

It's up to Gloria to connect the dots in a mystery that spans the fascinating scientific potential of "bucky balls" to the dark side of medicine...to those for whom profit is worth any price, including murder.
