The Policy: 1

The Story

Patrick Lynch, author of the bestselling novel Carriers, writes heart-pounding medical suspense. The Policy is no exception. Provlife, a popular, profitable Massachusetts life insurance company, is prepared to make a big push into the business of health care coverage. After showing initial success while testing itself on its employees, Provlife is poised to take the health care industry by storm. Young analyst Alex Tynan senses something is wrong--the statistics are too good to be true, and her colleagues are suddenly making an enormous amount of money. It almost seems as though the company already knows which applicants are a good risk--but how do they come by such private information? Her concerns grow as the company's directors start behaving in some very unpredictable ways...some of which end in death. Is it all a coincidence or, as Alex suspects, is the firm somehow manipulating the system for its own gain?
