The Clinic

A Novel

De: Cate Quinn

Narrado por: Kate Handford, Laurel Lefkow

From the critically acclaimed author of Black Widows comes a thriller set in a remote rehab clinic on the Pacific Northwest coast, in which the death of a woman inside prompts her sister to enter the clinic as a patient in order to find the truth. Perfect for fans of Stacy Willingham and Tarryn Fisher!

Meg works for a casino in LA, catching cheaters and popping a few too many pain pills to cope, following a far different path than her sister Haley, a famous actress. But suddenly reports surface of Haley dying at the remote rehab facility where she had been forced to go to get her addictions under control.

There are whispers of suicide, but Meg can't believe it. She decides that the best way to find out what happened to her sister is to check in herself—to investigate what really happened from the inside.

Battling her own addictions and figuring out the truth will be much more difficult than she imagined, far away from friends, family—and anyone who could help her.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Quinn does a terrific job creating quirky characters and keeping readers guessing."—Library Reads

Different accents made this confusing

I liked this book. It had a fun plot and many twists and turns. My one issue is that there were two narrators for the two different POVs and one narrator would use an English accent for a character and the other narrator wouldn't. It was very confusing.

A bit predictable

It was entertaining but pretty transparent from early in the story. The mental health information was misleading and created plot holes.

The hype is real

I saw this book promoted a lot on various places I go for book recommendations (Audible, Pinterest, various YouTubers), this is my 1st time reading this author but I understand previous books are great too!
The Clinic is exceptional even for all the great twisty mysteries there are right now! Each twist has its own offshoot of other twists ect. The ending had like 5 mins worth of twists! I kept thinking it was over but then, mind blown again!
The narration is on point! Each character is distinct and when a book has this many to keep tract of that is important!
All around excellent listen I would recommend to anyone!

The Clinic -

I finished this book in one day. I COULD NOT STOP READING IT. 10/10 for thriller and rollercoaster of emotions EVER. SENTENCE.

Really not sure why this isn’t rated higher

I don’t review books often, but I almost didn’t get this book because of the rating and I’m happy I ignored the ratings and listened based off the summary. This is the opposite of a slow burn which I feel like almost every book is nowadays. This hooked me from the start and I didn’t stop listening for the 2 or 3 days it took me to finish. Lots of twists and turns, I couldn’t even guess close what the actual ending was. Also this cate Quinn is not the same Kate Quinn that wrote the briar club which could’ve also been a deterrent because I thought that book was just ok. The clinic might seem like it’s the same as many other psych ward story lines but I felt the concept was truly unique and engaging.
