Michael Galster (Author), Michael Sullivan (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 1998

Written as a novel, but drawn from his real life experience in the Arkansas prison system, this book is both a modern political thriller and an exposé of how the Arkansas prison management during the reign of Governor William Clinton took often-infected blood from inmates and sold it throughout the world. The Canadian government has traced the deaths and infections of thousands of its citizens to this scheme.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally the truth about the Arkansas prison plasma program!, March 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: BLOOD TRAIL-HC (Hardcover)

My introduction to this book came via an episode of CBN Now. I could not believe that people in Canada and around the world were dying because they had received tainted blood from several prisons in Arkansas during the 1980s. The news-story was very disturbing, and it certainly gave a new meaning to the term -- "Blood Money". I immediately went out and bought Michael Sullivan's, 'Blood Trail' to know more about the blood scandal. 'Blood Trail' is a cleverly written fast paced "novel" (the author had to adopt this format so as to prevent reprisal from befalling himself or his family) that has many kernels of fact within its 320 pages. Names, characters and places may have been altered, but if you read closely you will recognize them.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT BOOK, October 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: BLOOD TRAIL-HC (Hardcover)

Although the book is written as fiction, once you read it you will know that this is real and did happen. Especially if you know about Arkansas politics and the way it works here in the south.

5.0 out of 5 stars A HEART STOPPER!, April 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: BLOOD TRAIL-HC (Hardcover)

"Blood Trail" really hits home for some of us who know victims of Canada's worst health crisis this century. I hope the RCMP has a copy of the book and is indeed following the Blood Trail where ever it may lead -- even if that means the White House. 10 years of Canadian Red Cross records shredded and now this! Nobody's buying the 1986 cutoff date for compensation for the tainted blood victims and now this EXPOLSIVE THRILLER proves it. A must buy. You won't put this book down.
