Editorial Review:
The 1964 murder of a nationally known cancer researcher sets the stage for this gripping exposé of medical professionals enmeshed in covert government operations over the course of three decades. Following a trail of police records, FBI files, cancer statistics, and medical journals, this revealing book presents evidence of a web of medical secret-keeping that began with the handling of evidence in the JFK assassination and continued apace, sweeping doctors into coverups of cancer outbreaks, contaminated polio vaccine, the arrival of the AIDS virus, and biological weapon research using infected monkeys.

Rating: - Fantastic book!
As a native New Orleanian, I was 20 years old when Dr. Sherman was murdered and remember parts of the strange story of her murder in her St. Charles Ave apartment. Having actually met a couple of the players in the book, back in the early and mid-60's, remembering the stories of the Primate Center over the years and various related vague controversies, I find Haslam's story very compelling, well researched and totally believable - it sure tied up a lot of loose ends for me about many questions I've ...

Rating: - Extremely Insightful
This book will definitely make you reconsider the murder of JFK, along with the cancer so many of us fight each day. It's scary to imagine what the government can do.
Rating: - very interesting reading
Excellent writing style, easy to read. I love that throughout the book, the author second guesses himself which leads him into other paths of investigation. Very sad topic. Makes one question the level of evil reigns over the masses. Real life murder mystery. Fact finding and proof is well established. Fascinating!
Rating: - Dr. Mary's Monkey
What a great book. It was hard to put down and contains valuable information. The public needs to be aware of these things because it gives one an idea of what "they" are capable of. The book is thoroughly documented and well written.
Rating: - Brilliant
Haslam's brilliant non-fiction book weaves together many strands: cover ups and long-neglected follow-ups in the unsolved 1964 murder of a talented cancer researcher; a mysterious underground lab involved in secret work with cancer viruses--work that has had far-reaching harmful effects on world health; the New Orleans mafia; the CIA; a prominent and well-connected physician; an eccentric and political pilot and self-taught lab technician; and Lee Harvey Oswald. The book raises many questions that make ... Read More
