About the Book

A suicide, a murder and a mysterious key--are they connected and what do they mean? Cub reporter Bruce Marshall wants to know. Joined by the sister of the suicide victim, he finds himself wandering along a puzzling trail of clues while he learns the ins and outs of investigative reporting. As the story unwinds in San Diego and Honolulu, a connection to the pharmaceutical industry emerges until it becomes overwhelming. Can these diverse clues ultimately explain why a young man with a bright future would choose to end his own life? Or did he? And the murder that followed--what links them? This tale of intrigue and danger touches the heart of a small suburb of San Diego where a neighborhood newspaper becomes an unlikely source of nationally important discoveries. As the relationship between Bruce and his beautiful companion intensifies, the story of a "miracle remedy" for a chronic disease, most common to an aging population, emerges. Corporate secrets and billions of dollars are at stake in the end.
About the Author: Port Martin has had a long-time interest in medical and health subjects. He began reading medically related books at age 10 and wandered into hormone-related ones in 2009. After hitchhiking through Europe and serving in the Navy during the Vietnam War (flying helicopters mostly), he worked as a technical manager in a research facility, served as a management consultant, helped start a master's degree program at the University of San Diego, and decided to capture some of his thoughts in a variety of written forms. He lives and works in San Diego, California, and particularly enjoys vacations in Hawaii.
