The year is 1999. Returning to practice after a suspension for stealing opioids, a young Scottish doctor takes the only job he can find: a post as a senior house officer in the struggling east London hospital of St Luke’s.

Amid the maelstrom of sick patients, over-worked staff and underfunded wards a darker secret soon declares itself: too many patients are dying.

Which of the medical professionals our protagonist has encountered is behind the murders? And can our unnamed narrator’s version of the events be trusted?

I loved this book, the narrator had the perfect voice for the main Character,
Very different from most Crime books, at first just like listening to a biography then gets darker and lots of twists.
I think it must be very hard to come up with new plots in this genre but this was different and fascinating
I am immediately going to look for more work by this author

The Best book I have listened to this year

Very good listen had lots of twists and turns and false leads that kept you guessing

Review

…and not just for the well constructed murder mystery, which, itself, is well told by the author, and extremely well voiced by this appropriate sounding narrator. But why do we continue to treat medical staff (& this is under all governments & in more than just the UK) in this way, such that the ones who actually survive & remain in the profession are, by that time, so exhausted, worn out, damaged or dependent on intoxicants of whatever sort, that they cannot be functioning properly? Every profession, to some extent, ill treats its entrants, but there is surely no other profession where it’s as extreme or as counter-productive? Sorry: big long rant - don’t let it put you off this interesting & exciting book.

Chilling…

Really enjoyed this book I liked listening to the twists and turns it took will be seeing if there are more books by the same author

Great story to listen to

The detachment of the story teller keeps you guessing till the end. Good twist; great characterisation.

Good story, great narrator
