Written by a leading medical authority with a brilliant eye for forensic detail, this superb medical thriller dazzles in the tradition of Robin Cook and Michael Palmer. Forensic pathologist Joanna... This description may be from another edition of this product.
In "Deadly Care," Leonard Goldberg dusts off a number of cliches: 1) the spunky female forensic pathologist who endangers her life to get at the truth 2) the tough but sensitive cop who has had an on-again off-again affair with the aforementioned pathologist 3) the big bad HMO that will do anything for profit. Been there, done that. Yet, in spite of this, Goldberg manages to keep the reader's interest throughout. How? He writes crisp, no-nonsense dialogue. The action is fast-paced and the bodies pile up. Goldberg knows how to write a gripping thriller and the medical details add a needed touch of realism. "Deadly Care" is an entertaining medical whodunit.
Kept me reading to find the solution

This is the first book written by Dr. Goldberg I have read. I really cannot wait to get the other books written by Dr. Goldberg. I could not put the book down and found my self reading it all the time. There really was not a point in the book that I could not wait for what would happen next. I can hardly wait to read other books by Dr Goldberg.
Leonard Goldberg always keeps me riveted.

I bought the book before it was being mass-marketed so I had to pay $35 for it. It was actually almost worth it, though. But now that it's only $6, it's definitely worth it.
The best medicine/science mystery I have ever read

I found the book keeping me on the edge of my seat whether it was when Dr. Blalock was determining a cause of death or when her and Jake Sinclair were solving the mystery of the man without a face.
Excellent book...could not put it down.
