Subversion of Trust is the story of Alex McKinnon, an older rural doctor who challenges an aggressive for-profit HMO for the sake of his patients and his integrity. With the advent of spring in a Montana ranching community, the stakes are raised and the community's clinic, with its unforgettable cast of characters, is pitted against a regional medical center. Doc's protigi, Dr. Jenny Morgan, is the center's feisty chief of staff and head of emergency services. At the heart of this story is Waynona, pregnant and penniless, a heroine in her own right. Other memorable characters in this well-crafted narrative are Peggy, Doc's office nurse and the love of his life; Stan, a strapping cowboy and Jenny's high school sweetheart; and Hugh Drummel, the ambitious self-important hospital administrator. This is a tale of dedication and daring, of power abused, and of the difficult choices to be made in health care. How Doc and Jenny finally solve their dilemmas is a spirited story that will give the medical profession courage and patients hope.
