Publisher's Synopsis
Assembled in the Grand Ballroom of the Four Seasons Hotel in Philadelphia were Ridge Avenue Memorial's biggest donors. In grateful recognition for his superior fund raising skills, Dr Walter Hagen, President of Ridge, received a year end bonus on top of his salary. He was the highest paid hospital president in the northeast. Over 200 donors from Ridge's 'Crystal Club' crowded into the hotel ballroom for a night of orgasmic, ego-drenching acclaim. Dr Hagen's holiday cheer would deep freeze if he knew Detective Lisa Marie Cooper was present with a list of Ridge's Crystal club donors unable to join the festivities. Those on Cooper's list had three things in common. First, they were all admitted to the Ridge in 1994. Second, Dr Hagen insured they enjoyed special attention during their hospital stay. And third, they were all dead.
