About this listen
When a top secret program of implanting harrowing memories into innocent people comes to light, neurosurgeon Tom McCarthy is literally caught in the crossfire. While McCarthy looks forward to a three day weekend, his office is suddenly raided by two Department of Defense investigators bent on arresting him for a crime he didn’t commit. All hell breaks loose when an inadvertent scuffle escalates, leaving one agent dead at the hands of the other, and McCarthy fleeing but hopelessly trapped inside the labyrinthine corridors, heating ducts, and stairways of a gigantic Seattle medical center.With the CIA and Seattle PD closing in, McCarthy unwittingly pulls Dr. Sarah Hamilton into the fray. And like rats in a maze, they struggle to stay one step ahead of their deadly hunters, while simultaneously uncovering a trail of corruption that reaches shocking dimensions.
Penned by master neurosurgeon, Allen Wyler, Dead Wrong brings the reader inside the world of an insidious and terrifyingly plausible narrative, to create a heart pounding, claustrophobic and nightmarish thriller.

Listening to Dead Wrong is like being stuck in a nightmare, but enjoying it. Written by a neurosurgeon, the story follows a doctor who happens upon a secret government program that will unsettle even experienced thriller fans. Craig Jessen's performance is the highlight of this audiobook. His dramatic, often whispered voice feels like a rollercoaster inching its way to the top. He employs unusual character voices and uses his pace exactingly like a scalpel to build suspense. In other words, with Jessen and Wyler at the helm, get ready for some serious heart-pounding action.

It’s the kind of case that chills Caitlyn to the bone. Missing person. College student. Beloved daughter of a world leader in biotechnology. She was last seen on a spring break cruise. No witnesses. No motives. Just one possible lead - reports of a stranger who may have lured the young archeology major off the ship and into the jungles of Guatemala. When Caitlyn follows her hunch into the jungle - with the FBI’s Jake Carver by her side - the trail takes a surprising turn into the very heart of darkness.

Good Story!
I really liked the story and characters. But the narration left something to be desired. His voice for Dr Weiss reminded me of Riff Raff from Rocky Horror Picture Show LOL. If you can stand the narration, you'll enjoy the book.

A great book that reminded me of "False memory"
I've listened to a few books by Allen Wyler. I've liked all but one. Tom McCarthy is a neurosurgeon who's being blamed for stealing classified material. He hasn't stolen anything and has no idea why they would blame him! The two men from the department of defense don't believe him. After his secretary is killed Tom tries to escape. Leaving the hospital isn't easy when everyone is looking for Tom.
I liked the book and I didn't mind the reader. The book reminded me of False memory by Dean Kontz.

Good story, but.....
I enjoyed the story and it had well developed characters, but the narrator took away from the story for me. He's pretty monotone and tends to drone out the words. He had an unwarranted sad tone through out and lengthen the vowels. That's the drawback with audible books. the narrator has so much influence as to how much a book can be enjoyed. A really great story can be difficult to enjoy.
The story is a good one, but if there is the option to hear it with a different narrator, I would suggest doing so..
