I would list this book as one of my top ten all time favorites, maybe the top five. The plot seemed pretty clear at the beginning, but very soon it started raising questions and the plot put out tentacles that quickly became intertwined. It was tied into a knot at the ending. I have read thousands of books and can usually figure half of them out before the middle of the book. This one had an ending that was both a surprise and bittersweet. It took off slow and had a WOW landing. If you love mystery, read this book!!!!
hard to put down, really gripping
I don’t often give a 5 star and I don’t often have a problem putting the book down. This one caught me in both cases. I just found another favorite author. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
Terrific writing up until the ending, which felt a bit weaker — my willing suspension of disbelief was strained during the conclusion because it seemed too convenient in that it seemed unlikely the police investigator and the rigidly ethical culprit would have agreed to this resolution. Still, a highly enjoyable story.
It was hard to put down, always a new twist. Educational and within the realm of possibilities in our minds. With the lack of privacy in our society, it would seem possible to track down the source of an implanted organ.
Excellent, excellent story!!!! Kept me in the dark through it all and a huge surprise for the ending.
Great murder mystery!
As great read. With an unexpected twist at the end
A little predictable, but a good read.
It was interesting,
The doctor needed more help than her patients.
Loved the characters and the suspense. Want to read the other books based on these characters.
I was not fully expecting everything that came out in this story. Captivating read.
Loved the ending. That extra little twist in the dream made it much more interesting.
It isn’t the best book I’ve ever read, but it kept you interested just to find out how the story unravels with a few unexpected twists
Excellent
Wonderful characters and great story. The ending??? One has to surmise.
Is a death the end–or the beginning? Not your usual suspects.
Very enjoyable read!
A good detective story set in Australia.
