Review:
When I tell you that the secret of The Healers is Nazis, don’t worry, I’m not giving anything away–it’s right on the spine of the book. Set in the year 2021, the book posits a worst-case scenario where rising health costs have put medical care in the hands of only the wealthy. There are a lot of scenes where one character lectures another one about how things ended up this way. Plot-wise, this is just a run-of-the-mill thriller with adequate characters, a somewhat titillating premise, and some relevance to the world we live in today. I wasn’t really blown away but I did keep the pages turning for the most part.
