Publisher's summary

The Kelso-McIvey rehabilitation center is a place of hope and healing for both its patients and dedicated staff. And for its directors, it's a lifelong dream that's about to be destroyed, if David McIvey has his way. A brilliant surgeon but a man whose ego rivals his skill with a scalpel, David McIvey now plans to close the clinic and replace it with a massive new surgery center, with himself at the helm.

Because he is poised to desecrate the dreams of so many, it's no surprise that somebody dares to stop him in cold blood. When David McIvey is murdered outside the clinic's doors, lawyer Barbara Holloway must use her razor-sharp instincts and take-no-prisoners attitude to create a defense for the two members of the clinic accused of his murder.

"One of the masters of psychological fiction in America." (San Francisco Chronicle)

Good Story!

Just as with book #7... I enjoyed this book very much. The story & characters were all interesting and the narrator, Anna Fields, did a great job. I look forward to listening to more books in this series.

Well written!

Well written piece with a good story line. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

Great read!

I enjoy this series and love the confidence and intelligence of the main character. Her relationship with her father is endearing. She’s a good sleuth. The narrator does an excellent job as well.

clear and convincing proof

this is an excellent. many twists and turns and surprises. I just love Barbara holloway

it's complicated

the story kept me guessing. characters were sometimes referred to by first name and sometimes by last name - a little confusing.

very good however preferred past narrator's voice

I like Marguerite Gavin's performance better than Anna Field's. I do like the story and the strong female lead. I will try the next book

Please stop the character voices!!!

It took a LONG time to get into this story, holy moly. This will be my last Kate Wilhelm / Anna Fields book I read. M. Gavin who narrated a couple of Wilhelm's other books is vastly superior. I was very disappointed she did not narrate more. Anna Fields does a good job with the normal narration but she absolutely butchers the character voices. Ms. Fields, your voice is lovely but you are not a character actor. I cringed every time she tried to do character voices, ESPECIALLY when she tries to do an old man voice. It sounds like a terrible attempt at a caricature of an old man. Don't even get me started on her voice for Bailey, he sounds like.. I won't even say. I ended up stopping halfway through and skipping to the end. I probably would have stuck it out if there weren't character voices. I felt like I was listening to a children's or teen book. I actually checked to see if it was geared towards young adults.

not as good as the first

after listening to the first in this series I really had a hard time getting used to the narrator. the story wasn't quite as compelling, but it was decent

Suspenseful and intelligible reading

Very well who done it story. Plausible plot and realistic characters. Narration is excellent audibly.

Anna Fields as Narrator is Incredible

Anna Fields is one of my favorite narrators out of the hundreds of books I’ve listened to on Audible!
