Dr Jessie Copeland is exactly where she wants to be- a respected neurosurgeon at Eastern Mass Medical Center, she spends her days waging life-and-death battles in the OR and her spare time in a lab, spearheading the development of a tiny robot that could revolutionize brain surgery. ARTIE - Assisted Robot Tissue Incision and Extraction - is an exciting fusion of biomechanics and radiology that, when perfected, will be able to excise tumors now considered inoperable. But it could be months before ARTIE is ready for use on human beings. . . or so Jessie thinks, until her ambitious department head jumps the gun and uses the robot in a high-profile case that nets immediate worldwide attention. Suddenly the hospital is swarming with media, and fielding calls from patients desperate for this lifesaving technology, the publicity has also reached one of the most malevolent men on earth. Claude Malloche is brilliant, secretive, remorseless, and without regard for humanlife - a mercenary willing to bring down a jetliner filled with people if the price is right. He is also ill with a brain tumor that is exactly the sort ARTIE was invented to treat. In brain surgery there are no guarantees, b; Crime, Thrillers & Mystery, Century<
