In a clinic on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, a doctor has dedicated his life to eradicating a divisive and devastating disease. One by one, his patients are getting well. One by one, they’re being targeted by a serial killer. And now Michael has been diagnosed with the disease. There’s only one cure, but many ways to die...

you can see what the latter books would become in this early one. The Jewish basketball star, successful partner, the quick referential humour etc. but it just doesn't work as well as the later books, or even any of the early Myron Bolitar ones.
Enjoyable, just not great.
DNF, I'm past the point where I can read a book with so much homophobia in it. I recognize it was written in 1991 but this is not the book for me.
