CELL by Robin Cook ****

A few previous 'stars' from the last book are in here but Pia is still missing and there is no accounting for her at all. Pisses me off.  Now the resident doctor George Wilson discovers a glitch in an implanted device that is related to a computer program called iDoc. People will have 24/7 access to the program instead of wasting time visiting doctors. The glitch comes when the computer discovers the people are going to die anyway so it unloads all its medicine implanted in the diabetics and kills them off.

George has a new bedmate towards the end when no one else can be trusted and decides against going along with everyone in their blind faith in the iDoc program. So he sends a letter to a friend in case he disappears forever and tells where he most likely is with background info for the newspapers and his friend to help him out.

I liked how easy reading it is, but there is always a catch to reading 400 pages without a definitive ending. I'm assuming George is in the mental hospital since his friend is reading his 'if you don't hear or see me for awhile' letter. He has wicked poor taste in females. I would get it at the library.
