They may not have enough evidence to convict him, but they have enough to ruin his life.
Dr. Matt Newman thought he was leaving his life in private practice for a better one in academic medicine. But the kidnappers who attacked him as he left his last shift in the ER have no such plans-they just want him dead. Bound and in the trunk of his car, Matt’s only thought is escape. He does so, but at a price: a head injury that lands him in the ICU . . . where he awakens to discover he’s being charged with murder.
Sandra Murray is a fiery, redheaded lawyer who swore she was done with doctors. But when Matt calls, she knows she can’t walk away from defending someone who is truly innocent.
Matt’s career is going down the drain. His freedom and perhaps his life may be next. But with the police convinced he’s a murderer and the kidnappers still trying to finish what they started, finding the truth-and the faith to keep going-will be the toughest stress test Matt has ever endured.
ISLAND BREEZES
I’m an RN so I understand stress, tests and stress tests, but this is not the usual stress test.
Can you imagine having people trying to kill you and you have no idea why?
Dr. Matt Newman’s stress continues to escalate while his body suffers more and more from the attacks on his life.
His only hope for stress relief is Sandra Murray, a lawyer who doesn’t want to have anything to do with doctors. Unfortunately she is having romantic feelings for this doctor. Can this case get any messier?
This will keep you on the edge of your seat with suspense. I’ve never been disappointed with any of Dr. Mabry’s books. I’m already looking forward to his next book.
