I love every single one of Michael Palmer's books. They all keep me one the edge of my seat, especially Natural Causes, Extreme Measures and The Sisterhood. These books were so brilliantly written that I was scared out of my mind. They all kept me sitting on the edge of my seat. Want to know the best part? I couldn't put any of them down, I tune everything else in the world out and only focus on the suspense I have right in front of me. In Flashback, and eight year old Toby has a surgery and everything goes well. Months go by and then Toby begins to relive what happened to him in the OR. He is tormented with visions of everything transpired during the surgery, everything, including the immense pain. Unfortunately Toby isn't the only patient who is experiencing this bizarre effect after the operation. Other patients who has gone this weird twist of events haven't been able to live with the terror, so they kill themselves. Soon someone will reach the conclusion that something unusual is transpiring at the hospital. If that person doesn't hurry there will be some disastrous affects. If they do not hurry, another patient will be wheeled into the OR, none the wiser to the terror and torment that awaits them there.
Pre-op patients, watch out!! You may be next!

I have finally found a writer that can get me to read. I have read all of Michael Palmer's books, and have loved them. I like the way he starts out with the plot in his first chapter or two, and then he drops it cold. The entire book goes by before he starts to bring the first plot into the picture. His plot is well thoughtout, very detailed, and paints a vivid picture in your mind of the scene and things going on. I have probably read only one paperback in my life, but at age 38, having found Michael Palmers books, I can't put them down.
...thrilling, sucks you in...
