MY REVIEW
I love a good medical thriller, and this book raised my curiosity quite a bit.
Dr KATE was conscientious in her work, and when her patients started dying day 2 post-op, her integrity compelled her go down the road of investigation with quite an unlikely team.
My first book by author Tammy Euliano, I loved the swift pace of the first section where along with the mystery I was shown quite a bit of her life.
The story lost me in the mid section when the investigation got slowed down and quite a few characters found their way into the book. Also, the villain was made known early on.
It was just a matter of turning of pages to get to the truth. The story raised some debatable questions of medical practice. I loved the authenticity of it, I knew there were quite a few of us in the medical field who would do anything to earn money.
The ending was explosive, I would have liked it more if the suspense had been built up in the journey too. A good debut.

I received an ARC from NetGalley and the publisher, and this is my journey down its pages, straight from the heart. STRICTLY HONEST and UNBIASED.

This one looked right up your alley – glad you enjoyed it overall.
A pity, when a promising thriller doesn’t quite deliver. I often feel bored about three quarters of the way through, and just want to know what happened, but if the book disappeared, I wouldn’t look for it!
