About this listen

Not all doctors are heroes....

Renowned surgeon Michael Trenchard locks his office door and prepares for a relaxing evening. But what follows is a living nightmare when later he is discovered in a locked-in coma, the victim of an auto-erotic asphyxiation.

It is left to Doctor Kash Devan, Trenchard's young protégé, to uncover the truth. And what he discovers is chilling....

In his ruthless pursuit of wealth and success, Trenchard has left a trail of wrecked lives, and angry people, behind him.

Which of Trenchard's victims hated him so much that they wanted to ruin not only his reputation, but his life as well?

Control is a dark and compulsive medical thriller that will keep you guessing until the end. For fans of Robin Cook and Tess Gerritsen.

Critic reviews

"'A suspenseful and frightening thriller." (Lynda La Plante)
All stars
Most relevant
I was gripped to the end, enjoying the twists and turns and variety of perceptions. Expertly and dramatically perceived and written, indeed, I particularly appreciated and enjoyed the style of writing, not too much too soon, only intense when needed, The characters were vivid, despite not being described in amateurish detail. I found the narration too fast to begin with, but then it settled and was very effective

Very different. Expertly written, and gripping.

Tale of a horrific crime in the (twisted nostalgia inducing for a doctor like myself) setting of junior doctor life starting at a new hospital.

Excellent
