Black Gold: A Dr. Whyte Adventure

Summary

A medical mission takes a deadly turn ...

Emergency medicine physician Lillian Whyte is swept into a dangerous world when the camp of her Kenya mission clinic is destroyed by war profiteers. 

Lillian realized that the luster and idealism of medicine and healing faded and left her disillusioned after trudging through the hectic emergency room. Concerned about her swelling cynicism about her job, her supervisor volunteered her to lead a group of residents on a medical mission to Kenya. An ocean away from her troubles, she found comfort in aiding local inhabitants and refugees who fled from civil unrest in neighboring countries. 

The tranquility turns to chaos when her clinic is ambushed by militant thieves led by a conniving oil profiteer. 

Faced with the prospect of permanent captivity and/or probable death, Dr. Whyte must find the resolve to outwit her captors and escape. With the help of a CIA operative turned love interest, she seeks to disband the oil thieves while restoring her humanitarianism in medicine and her faith in herself.
