"He’s a doctor…but can you trust him?"

Synopsis

He’s a doctor…but can you trust him?


With his marriage collapsing and grief-stricken following the death of his baby son, surgeon Dan Lewis is struggling to make sense of it all.

His work is his lifeline. But when he fixates on a child patient he thinks has a potentially lethal disease, no one believes the diagnosis. They all think he’s losing his mind.


When one of Dan’s critics is senselessly murdered and the evidence points to the damaged doctor as the prime suspect, his bad situation becomes desperate.


But there’s a dark secret linking the ill child and the murder victim. One that no one other than Dan can see.


Can he overcome his paralyzing despair to reveal the truth and clear himself?


And if he does, will he be in time to save an innocent child from a terrifying fate?



My Review


This book really kept me on the edge of my seat


After prominent ophthalmic surgeon Dan Lewis and his wife suffer the tragic loss of there child, there world is turned upside down


Dan Lewis tries to carry on with his work as by helping others keeps his grief at bay that is until a visit from a young woman, new to the area, whose son may have a serious eye problem however, she is not prepared to visit again and so the mystery begins!

The story is a slow burner but the pace ebbs up as the mystery unfolds with lots of twists and turns. This was the first novel I have read by Dylan Young or so i thought up till writing up this blog post! I have had the pleasure of reading his children's fiction and both me and my son's loved them! now I see his talent in crime writing as well I will be seeking out more of his books!
