Dr. Tobi Lister knows she works in a wildly dysfunctional system, but she has no idea she is entangled in deadly intrigue. When a sinister regional medical director targets Tobi's office as the newest reaping ground for a vicious Russian hacking scheme that is making billions by murdering patients, Tobi tries to brush off the signs as just one more reprehensible facet of the current American healthcare system's focus on profit over people. Even when Troy, the man who broke her heart two decades ago, suddenly resurfaces to try to warn her, she ignores him. But if Troy does not get through to her, Tobi will be next on the Hit List.

“Code Blue vividly describes the underbelly of medicine—what it’s like to try to remain a careful, dedicated doctor in an impersonal system infected and overtaken by corporate greed. Into this setting, Dr. Debra Blaine weaves a murder mystery, dropping tantalizing clues that point toward a world-wide medical conspiracy, and providing enough detail to make you believe it really could happen. Don’t miss the crescendo to a heart-pounding climax!”
–Ken Kamler, MD, best-selling author of Surviving the Extremes and Doctor on Everest; TV and multimedia medical consultant; international medical lecturer
“Part takedown of the toll profit-driven medicine can take on physicians and their patients, part global tale of murderous betrayal and all about the price of greed, Debra Blaine’s page-turner of a first novel reads like a cross between a fictional thriller and Elisabeth Rosenthal’s An American Sickness.”
– Edward Hershey, award-winning journalist and author of The Scorekeeper, Oregon Book Award finalist
“Code Blue takes us into the real world of modern medicine in all of its heartfelt sincerity
and profit-driven dysfunction. Wrapped in a fast-paced thriller, our physician heroine finds
everything she thought she knew about her career and her personal losses upended.
How does she fight for her own life and for those of her patients when nothing is as it seems?”
– Rabbi Michael Z. Cahana, Senior Rabbi, Congregation Beth Israel, Portland, Oregon; past president of Oregon Board of Rabbis; social activist
