What she found was an unlikely and irresistible group of heroes - five aging South Florida investigators who dubbed themselves the Horsemen of the Apocalypse and held their meetings at Hooters. Working around the clock on cases no one else wanted to tackle, they followed the trail of stolen and contaminated medicine in a takedown eventually dubbed Operation Stone Cold. This riveting page-turner takes us along with the Horsemen as they wade into \"more rank Florida unseemliness than a Carl Hiaasen novel\" (\"Salon\") to ultimately uncover $33 million in bad medicine and make more than sixty arrests. \u003cbr\u003e\"In a style reminiscent of some of the best detective storytellers, Eban takes us breathlessly through robberies, back-room deals, cluttered and dirty warehouses, crooked dealers, sociopathic profiteers, shell companies, and state and federal laws so porous that convicted felons can become prescription-drug brokers.\"--\"The Boston Globe\" \u003cbr\u003e\"In her vibrant tale, Eban introduces us to these people and makes the message clear: It shouldn't happen to anyone, and it could happen to you.\"--\"The Washington Post Book World\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003cbr\u003eKatherine Eban, an investigative medical reporter and a Rhodes Scholar, has worked for the \"New York Times, New York, New York Observer, \"and \"ABC News.\" Her articles have appeared in the\" Nation,\" \"Playboy,\" the\" New Yorker,\" \"Vogue,\" and \"Glamour,\" and she is the recipient of an Alicia Patterson Fellowship.
