Publisher's summary

The first in the Camille Delaney Mystery series, The Complication is a fast-paced legal and medical mystery filled with greed, murder, and intrigue.

After her friend Dallas Jackson suffers a fatal complication during routine surgery, Seattle attorney Camille Delaney is determined to find out why. Dallas was like a father to Camille, and she feels she owes it to him and his family to get answers. Knowing she could lose her partnership at her high-profile law firm for undertaking such an investigation, Camille takes a huge risk and starts her own firm, determined to bring Dallas’ killer to justice. She turns for help to her friend Trish Seaholm, a quick-witted chameleon-like private investigator with an uncanny knack for blending into any situation.

As the two dive headfirst into a dangerous investigation, they discover disturbing evidence that Dallas’ case is not an isolated incident. A shocking number of patients are dying during run-of-the-mill surgeries at small-town hospitals—at the hands of the same two surgeons. Can Camille uncover the reason for these unexplained deaths before more patients fall victim? Or will her search for answers land her in the crosshairs of a killer?

A page-turner!

Loved the combo of the author’s life experiences as a nurse and an attorney. This was a fast-paced page-turner. I loved it and can’t wait to order her next book!

Riveting

Intrigue, scandal and corruption! This was a great read. The story flows effortlessly and was very mysterious in all the right places!

Great Listen

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. There were a few times I was confused about who was who and ended up figuring it out while continuing to listen.
The narrator does a really good job with the voices. Even the male voices were good while being read by a woman.
Though it was based on medical, it was still interesting and written in such a way that anyone could understand it.
I really enjoyed this listen.

Amanda DuBois, the complication

I drive many hours a week and have learned to love Audible. As I drive, I feel very angry at being interrupted while listening to my latest book. I downloaded The Complication recently and just happened to have a road trip and started the book. Besides John Grisham's books, I have never been so immediately involved in a book and its characters. I wouldn't answer calls claiming I was in a dead zone. This might sound crazy, but even when I arrived where I was going, I didn't want to go in; I wanted to continue listening!!!

I, of course, finished the book and felt like I had lived through it all. I immediately began searching Audible to see if I could hear another book from this author. Although I was sad to learn there are no books, the more I searched, I learned this author has new books coming out soon.

As far as I am concerned, she cannot get these books out fast enough. I am completely enamored with her writing, and I will be a lifelong admirer of her work.

Complication was excellent !

I was riveted throughout the entire book. Great twists and turns and visuals were breathtaking

So Disappointing

I was excited for this book. As an RN, who has lived in the Seattle area most of my life, I expected to love this book. Sadly, I didn’t even like it. There were supposed to be plot twists? It was so very, very predictable. Not only that, the plot was ludicrous. Completely unbelievable. The performance was distractingly bad, especially when she was doing male dialogue.

Started off good but then went downhill

The first few chapters were very intriguing. Around chapter 4 things really went downhill. Lesbian romance, boring plot, I couldn’t finish
