Good
I had never read an Ebel book before, but I enjoyed it and will look to read others by her. The loss of a star is only because I thought it was a slightly predictable ending.

Don't be fooled by the medical title.....
If you're after a slightly tedious book about the affairs of a family you'll get what you're after but, for me, this was a slow read with often predictable plot lines and a writing style that felt slightly amateurish. It had a promising start when the medical angle was interesting but that quickly faded and we're just left with a story about infidelity. I'll pass on the rest of Barbara Ebel's book I think!

Medical Drama Compelling Read
An excellent medical drama about the rise and fall of a successful neurosurgeon.Dr. Danny Tilson, risks everything when he has an affair with the alluring Rachel who proves to be bad news. A typical example of a man thinking with other than his mind.Dr. Barbara Ebel has written a compelling novel which keeps the reader turning the pages. It starts out a little slower than I would like as she introduces her characters and storyline. I think she should have got into the meat of the story a bit quicker to really hook the reader, but that is a minor quibble.The medical accuracy of the facts embedded in the story is excellent and one learns a lot about neurosurgeryy and the workings of a major hospital. The setting is in Nashville, Tennessee which adds some real flavor.Overall a highly enjoyable read and I look forward to the sequel. The price is also right and a good deal for the reader.I would highly recommend this book.

MEDICAL DRAMA WITH A TWIST
Dr Danny Tilson, a well respected Neurosurgeon, risks everything, even his marriage to Sara and their three children when he falls in love with the alluring Rachel. Rachel is a woman with secrets, but I can't divulge them or it will spoil the story.If you are after a story with medical accuracy in it, this is certainly for you as Dr Barbara Ebel's medical knowledge shines through, or if you just want a great read with a touch of mystery, you won't be disappointed.This well written story is set in Tennessee, and the description of the countryside is so vivid, I could almost hear the water lapping around the edges of the lake, and feel the perfume laden country air caressing my cheeks.A great array of colourful, likeable characters pass through the book. Casey, the paramedic and Danny's best friend, is certainly swoon-worthy, Sara, the betrayed wife is stoic and dignified throughout and Mary, the quirky sister of Danny, is charming.
