From the Credible Medical Fiction Writer, the second Dr. Annabel Tilson Box Set starts with DEATH GRIP, the 2018 Medical Thriller Finalist of the National Indie Excellence Awards.
This set of three books has medical student Annabel Tilson continuing her journey with three major rotations: internal medicine, OB/GYN, and pediatrics. Annabel’s skill as a medical sleuth extraordinaire comes into play again as the suspense ramps up during each rotation. And in her personal life, the men in her life are more prominent than ever.
“Fans of Robin Cook may be used to medical intrigue, but the added doses of issues of personal, ethical, and professional survival will very much satisfy those who like their medical mysteries endowed with a sense of personal growth and moral grounding." – MWBR
