Review:

“When you open the pages of a Michael Palmer novel, you know you are in the hands of a pro. This author knows how to weave a plot and keep the action coming, and the readers know it won't all fall apart at the end. Such is definitely the case with Political Suicide. Each page adds a new dimension to the characters and a new revelation to the plot. It is action/mystery reading at its best. Palmer just keeps delivering good stories, one right after the other.” ―Huffington Post

“This book goes from great to outstanding...a definite keeper!” ―Suspense Magazine

“Plenty of chills and spills.” ―Kirkus Reviews

“Palmer writes terrific medical suspense, and he has thrown political intrigue into the mix...fans won't be disappointed.” ―Associated Press

“Michael Palmer once again delivers an adrenaline-pumped political and medical action thriller... Palmer fans will not be disappointed in this suspenseful and realistic, fast-paced whodunit.” ―Jewish Journal

“A must-read for fans of political intrigue.” ―Fort-Worth Star Telegram

“The military conspiracy is frightening, while Lou's interactions with his daughter and his blossoming romantic interest in a tough attorney provide some breaks from the merciless pace of the investigation. Suspend disbelief that an ER doctor can, or should, attempt some of these actions and enjoy the ride.” ―RT Book Reviews

“Michael Palmer mixes politics, medical science, and the military to create another suspenseful medical thriller.” ―Examiner.com
