Praise for Doing Harm

“Best damn medical thriller I’ve read in 25 years. Terrifying OR scenes…characters with real texture.” —Stephen King

“This skillfully wrought debut gets high marks for building tension to a breathtaking climax.” —Library Journal, starred review

“The attention to detail keeps the action chillingly plausible.” —Publisher’s Weekly


“This spectacular debut is a real nail-biter with startling revelations that build suspense throughout.” —RT Book Reviews

“A terrific medical thriller—compelling, gripping, and terrifying. You’ll shiver with delight.” —Harlan Coben

“A twist worthy of a surgical knot. Flawed characters standing on moral pedestals. Insight into the world of medicine and the ambitious geniuses who make life-and-death decisions. Doing Harm is more faction than fiction, presenting a world so close to our own that you find yourself second-guessing the characters as if they're sitting next to you. Repeatedly, I found myself breathless and troubled yet compelled to keep reading. Brilliant.” —Ridley Pearson

“A classic cat-and-mouse game with a refreshing, unexpected twist. It opens with some remarkable bait—dangling a hook that the reader will definitely want to bite. Top notch storytelling.” —Steve Berry
