Description
The Middleman is an epic drama of whistleblowers, murder, thrills, and legal combat--torn out of today's headlines.

Nicholas "Deke" Deketomis and his law firm take on America's Big Pharma when Deke's college pal, Matt Redmond, presents him with a case of possible fraud involving EirePharma, the Redmond family business and a powerful Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM). PBMs serve as the "middlemen" between drug manufacturers and insurance companies, working in cryptic ways to determine not only the cost of drugs but also placing them on insurers' preferred formularies. EirePharma was recently taken over by the charismatic CEO, Connor Devlin, who has a Rasputin-like influence over Matt's cousin, Amy, the company's current president. Devlin may be utilizing racketeering practices--and perhaps murder--to raise the prices of insulin and other drugs for his own profit and to the detriment of consumers.

Amy, who at first was in love with Devlin, decides--at great peril--to become her company's whistleblower and provide evidence to Deke and his team. When key witnesses and even Redmond family members meet mysterious and violent deaths, Amy finds herself a pawn caught in the center of a frightening and deadly game of wills between a formidable gangster, who in the eyes of the public is a respected businessman, and a law firm that is determined to investigate and uncover the Middleman's crimes.

In the tradition of Suspicious Activity and Inhuman Trafficking, Mike Papantonio takes Deke and his cohorts on a new and different kind of legal gamble in The Middleman, which is chock full of the action and thrills for which he is known.
