“I was so engrossed in this and read it in a day . . . kept me gripped!” —Goodreads reviewer, five stars Is it grief—or guilt? A doctor investigates a colleague in mourning in this addictive mystery by the author of Deadly Diagnosis.

Could she have had something to do with not only his demise but with her own mother’s?
