### From the Back Cover
**BENEATH ONE BRILLIANT DOCTOR'S KINDLY BEDSIDE MANNER…**
Dr. John Kappler was a well-respected physician in dozens of California hospitals, yet none of his patients ever imagined that his real profession was murder…
**LURKED AN INSATIABLE KILLER…**
The horror began the day he secretly attempted to kill three patients--including a pregnant woman who suffered permanent brain damage at his evil hands. Then, in a driving rampage, Kappler rammed another car, stole it, and used it as a lethal weapon. Yet, incredibly, his fellow doctors bailed him out of jail, and he was soon back on the job.
**WHO LURED HIS PATIENTS INTO A VICIOUS CIRCLE OF DEATH…**
Desperate to satisfy his lust for killing, Kappler cruelly plunged a patient into cardiac arrest. Next, he pulled the plug on a defenseless man unconscious in a hospital bed. Still, no one stopped him. Finally, he exploded in a terrifying rage of violence and murder. Pressing the accelerator of his car to the floor, he cut down a promising young doctor and seconds later maimed a toddler's mom for life.
Author Keith Ablow, a close friend of the murdered physician, paints a chilling portrait of a twisted modern-day Jekyll and Hyde.
**"Superb investigative reporting."--Michael Palmer**
