Detective Josie Quinn is horrified when she’s called to the house of a mother who had her newborn baby snatched from her arms. A woman caught fleeing the scene is Josie’s only lead, but when questioned it seems this mysterious girl doesn’t know who she is, where she’s from, or why she is so terrified.... Is she a witness, a suspect, or the next victim? As Josie digs deeper, a letter about a mix-up at a fertility clinic links the nameless girl and the missing child to a spate of killings across the county.

This book is not for weak people. I AM a bereaved mother and perhaps that is why I understand her. I am not capable of something like this but, I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND.

In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the next Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup “unicorn” promised to revolutionize the medical industry with its breakthrough device, which performed the whole range of laboratory tests from a single drop of blood. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes’s worth at an estimated $4.5 billion.

A must read
Reviewed: 04-15-23
All Americans should read this book. Big pharma knows no limits. They lie and bend rules. They are greedy, heartless and will stop at nothing for fame and wealth. A very wise and kind physician once told me to always question diagnosis and seek second and third opinions. All patients should educate themselves before, during and after diagnosis. KUDDOS FOR THIS COURAGEOUS WRITER. Perhaps one day we will get to know the TRUTH about Civic and how our tax $ funded the lab that created it.

Story
Mary is a quiet middle-aged woman doing her best to blend into the background. Unremarkable. Invisible. Unknown even to herself. But lately, things have been changing inside Mary. Along with the hot flashes and body aches, she can’t look in a mirror without passing out, and the voices in her head have been urging her to do unspeakable things. Fired from her job in New York, she moves back to her hometown hoping to reconnect with her past and inner self. What she finds instead are visions of terrifying mutilated specters that come with increasing regularity.
