THIS IS WHY I LIKE TO READ

This is the 6th story featuring psychologist Dr. Gregory Alan, written by Stephen White. It would be a respectable read on its own, however, I'm glad I've read the earlier books and have gotten to know the repeating characters. Dr. Alan isn't perfect and his refreshing inadequacies often lighten the story or add some comic relief. The story was full of surprises, and for me, was the perfect mystery to curl up with in front of a fire on a few cold evenings.

Outstanding!!

This is my first book by Stephen White, but not the last. The plot is excellent with many twists and turns to keep me interested, not confused. It sees Dr. Gregory trying to help a young girl who may or may not have killed in order for her sister to get critical health care. However, readers shouldn't despair as it is not full of medical language or too much cumbersome details. I give this book a well deserved five star rating.

Very well written with an interesting plot

If you get past the first 10 pages you'll finish the book because you'll be hooked.The plot is well devised although, after many pages of suspense it unravels into the "happy ending" too quickly.What most impressed me was the writing style and the astute way of introducing the main characters into the plot (never boring).If I could rate in fractions, I would give it a 4.5/5.0 because about 2/3 of the way through the story stagnates a little bit. But since fractions are not allowed, it rounds off to a 5 star rating.

Awesome Thriller! Do NOT MISS!!!

This is the first book I've read out of the Alan Gregory series and I fell in love with it. I have read many many books but not too many mystery/suspense books. After reading this book I plan on reading the rest of his series plus other mystery books. I read this whole book in one sitting. I just couldn't put it down. Like other reviews READ THE BOOKS IN ORDER. I have now read 2 other books out of this series and reading the series in order will be most enjoyable! READ THIS BOOK. It will blow your mind.

I loved this book.

I started out reading his book Manner of Death which was a birthday gift from my father. I enjoyed that book so much I went out a bought this book. It keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. It is a page turner and I couldn't put it down. So far the two books that I have read are excellent.
