Stolen by Daniel Palmer

Imagine your wife has been diagnosed with cancer.  She needs medical treatment to the tune of $300,000.  You submit your claim to your insurance carrier only to find out that she must use the generic version of the drug.   Unfortunately the drug is out of stock and the insurance will only cover the generic. John Bodine goes to the insurance carrier and negotiates with them.  They say they will provide about $12,000 to cover the real drug.  What would you do?

Bodine comes up with an ingenious plan to steal someone's identity and submit medical claims under that person's name.  The plan seems to work until he gets a phone call one night.  The caller has discovered his trespass and will not report his insurance fraud if John agrees to play a game called "Criminal".  The caller lays out crimes that both John and his wife must complete to avoid being prosecuted.  The crimes become more heinous as time goes on.

A well constructed novel.  Very realistic and worth the read.
