Bed of Nails by Andrew Puckett
Chris Randall has returned to Oxford, after several months living the nomadic life.
Back in the same research lab at St Frideswide's hospital, he reprises his role as a locum laboratory worker.
Surrounded by familiar faces, some, such as Sally Wytham, are happy to see him; others are more hostile.
But where is the most hostile of them all, his old friend, the Glaswegian John Devlin?
After several days of no-show, Sally and Chris begin to worry...that is until they remember the top-secret project John was working on, a cure for AIDS.
Could this be the reason for his disappearance?
As the duo join forces to try and uncover the truth about John's project and his location, the more sinister the situation becomes.
Andrew Puckett's other novels include Deliver Them From Evil, Death Before Time and Sisters of Mercy.
