Final Stroke — Michael Beres

Retired government agents cling to a decades-old secret that could wreak havoc on the United States political system. When a stroke victim related to a high-profile mobster dies mysteriously at a Chicago rehabilitation facility, a fellow rehab patient and former detective launches his own investigation. But when his wife tries to help him, she is kidnapped, and soon other victims emerge. The mob, family legacies, health-care scams, a troubled environment, crooked politics, and federal agents are all linked to the escalating violence surrounding Saint Mel in the Woods Rehabilitation Facility.
