Book Description
Four novels in one volume, featuring a British doctor who investigates symptoms and suspects with equal dedication . . . This collection of crime thrillers stars Dr Cathy Moreland, who manages not only her own practice and her bipolar disorder, but also investigations into murder, and includes: Shooting Pains When a patient visits Cathy with a disturbing story of marital tension and a bruise on her arm, she’s understandably concerned. But Fiona, despite confiding her fear of her husband, refuses further help. After Fiona’s husband asks Cathy to sign his gun licence form days later, and then someone is killed with the gun, Cathy must sort through her suspicions and find out what’s been happening behind closed doors. Clinically Dead During a condolence call to medical secretary Sara Wiseman, Cathy finds it odd that Sara seems more upset about the recent suspicious death of her boss at the hospital than about the loss of her own mother to Alzheimer’s. But she’s far more alarmed when Sara’s husband says he suspects Sara was having an affair with the dead doctor—and fears that was the least of her transgressions . . . Lethal Resuscitation A medical conference becomes a murder scene when Cathy checks in at a country hotel for an advanced life support course—and the equipment meant for saving lives is instead used to kill a bad-tempered doctor. The Vanishing Patient Cathy is taken aback when an irate patient claims his ailing wife has been kidnapped by one of her colleagues using a false name. Is someone impersonating a doctor, or is Adam Steer delusional? But the more she looks into the bizarre story, the more she starts doubting her own sanity. Can she make sense of the events around her before everything spirals out of control?

Book Description
Inspired by real, hundred-year-old love letters. My great-grandmother's name is bold across the cream envelope, now golden at the seams with age. I can't remember the last time I’ve seen graceful, purposeful handwriting with a fountain pen and not the hasty scrawl of ballpoint. Alice Hirshhorn, Astoria Hotel, Seattle Washington. “Letters to Great-grandma Alice,” I say with wonder, tracing my fingers over the faded postmark and foreign stamps. December 1915. Philippine Islands. I turn the thick envelope in my palm, slide out the tightly folded pages, and unfold the thin paper, taking care not to tear the letters that were important enough to keep for a century. My dearest Alice “Great-grandpa was in the Philippines?” I ask. “Oh no. Not your great-grandfather,” answers Grammie, her eyes twinkling with her mother’s secrets. “Elliott.” ​~~~ At thirty-three and with her future unclear, Ali Waller finds her way home again. A box of long-forgotten love letters written to her great-grandmother holds the unlikely key to Ali finding her new path. As she tracks down the letter writer and his descendants, Ali learns the magic of love, hope, and resilience. Told by three characters, and across century and an ocean, Genealogy is an enchanting story about love and loss, taking chances, and embracing the surprises that life brings. A twelve question discussion guide is included, making Genealogy a perfect choice for your book club or a buddy read.

On the eve of the heated presidential election of 1892, Miss Hattie Davish arrives in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, a scenic resort town where those without the scent of whiskey on their breath have the plight of temperance on their tongues. Summoned for her services as a private secretary, Hattie is looking forward to exploring the hills, indulging her penchant for botany--and getting to know the town's handsome doctor. But it's hard to get her job done with her employer nowhere to be found. . . An army of unassuming women wielding hatchets have descended on the quiet Ozark village, destroying every saloon in their path--and leaving more than a few enemies in their wake.
