High Society

De: Daniel Kalla

Narrado por: Mia Barron

From internationally bestselling author Daniel Kalla comes a twisty psychological thriller about a pioneering psychiatrist hiding dark secrets, in the vein of The Golden Couple by Hendricks and Pekkanen and Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty.

At sixteen, Holly Danvers barely survived the car accident that killed her father. While she has no memory of the crash, it took an ayahuasca treatment, a native plant-based psychedelic therapy, in the jungles of Peru for her to emotionally recover. Twenty years later, Holly is a sought-after psychiatrist determined to use her expertise with psychedelics to treat patients suffering from addictions. Ignoring the risks, she embarks upon an unproven new protocol with miraculous results. But her success in probing the traumas of her patients and the secrets they keep is short-lived.

When one celebrity client goes public with his recovery and another overdoses after accusing Holly of improprieties, her world is turned upside down. With her career on the line, Holly reaches out to her mentor—and estranged husband—Dr. Aaron Laing, for advice and comfort. But he has a different agenda, and it soon becomes clear that it will be up to Holly alone to figure out why her clients are relapsing and dying. To accomplish that, she will have to risk her life and revisit her own deep-seated trauma.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Daniel Kalla’s latest gripping thriller is superb. I’m a fan!”
— SHARI LAPENA, New York Times bestselling author of Everyone Here Is Lying

“What a rollercoaster read! A psychiatrist experimenting with psychedelic drugs on her addicted patients was probably not going to end well, but as the story developed and skeletons queued up to fall out of the cupboard, I was totally riveted. Beautifully written and ingeniously plotted, readers will be taken on a trip beyond their imagining.”
— LIZ NUGENT, internationally bestselling author of Strange Sally Diamond

Interesting and grabbed me

I enjoyed this book and the whole foray into psychedelic use in psychiatry and potential consequences.

Meh

I listened to half the book and just couldn't get into it. Narrtional was good. Storyline had so much more potential. I didn't even have to finish the book to know what the ending would be.
