The Carey Treatment  (A Case of Need)
A Case of Need is a mystery novel written by Michael Crichton  under the pseudonym Jeffery Hudson . It was first published in 1968 and won an Edgar Award in 1969.

The novel is a medical thriller in which a Boston pathlogist , Dr. John Berry, independently investigates the death of a young woman, Karen Randall. Berry becomes involved when his friend Dr. Arthur Lee is implicated in Karen's death: Lee is accused of performing the abortion  on Karen Randall that led to her death. Crichton's later novels are preoccupied with technology: his novels can be extended examinations of the morality and implications of a particular innovation draped over the structure of a thriller novel. In A Case of Need, however, it is a medical practice and not a techological innovation that is at issue.
