FLAWLESS

Medical detective Nate McCormick moves back to San Francisco to be with his girlfriend. The Bay area holds bad memories for him, and things get even worse when a phone call plunges him into a conspiracy between Asian villains and a biotech firm. The company is desperate to cover up its cosmetic injections gone wrong--the recipients develop hideous facial cancers. Scott Brick is adept at the Asian, Indian, female, and children's voices called for. He also knows just how to play the angst-ridden Nate, who constantly second-guesses himself and wisecracks at tense moments. His horror at finding his friend, and later others, slaughtered is palpable. The plot may not be flawless, but Brick's performance is.
