Kristy Petersen’s transition from compassionate nurse to mercy killer is insidious in MEDICINAL REMEDIES, a medical thriller. Kristy Petersen is one burned-out critical care nurse. What finally pushes her over the top isn’t one individual thing, but a compilation of family, romantic and work stressors. Add to the mix her growing concerns for the habits of modern medicine in keeping alive elderly people and others with terminal illnesses. Kristy believes we are kinder to our animals than we are to other humans. When a patient dies accidentally through omitting medication needed to keep her alive, Kristy finds herself feeling powerful. She convinces herself she’s doing a good thing by allowing her patients to die. The step to mercy killer is inevitable. Being caught, convicted, and sentenced to prison does nothing to rehabilitate her. After serving a small portion of her sentence, she is paroled. But just before leaving, she commits an act that will possibly result in the future death of an inmate she’s drawn lab work on. However, she takes great pains to assure that she won’t be caught this time.
