The Syndrome by John Case (2001)

 This is described on the jacket as a biomedical thriller. That's one way to put it. The beginning is gross and bizarre, the end is a let down, but the middle is engaging.  It's a decent read, if there's nothing else around.

The Tenth Justice by Brad Meltzer (1997)

 This is a debut legal thriller by Brad Meltzer. It is about a Supreme Court justice's clerk who finds himself in a fix.  The setting is interesting, plot is kind of interesting, but the main character is annoying. The sarcasm routine gets old.
