About this listen
Dr. Rhea Lynch left a suffocating life in Charleston to practice medicine in the ER of a small South Carolina Hospital. Now, Dawkins County is her home, a place that holds the only real family she's ever known.
But when she returns from vacation, Rhea is shocked to discover that her best friend, Marisa, is near death and unable to communicate. The official diagnosis: a paralyzing stroke. Despite the family's attempts to keep her away, Rhea is determined to make her own diagnosis.
In a surreptitious examination, a hideous truth is revealed. Then a man is brought into her ER with similar symptoms. And then another. Each one of her patients has been willfully, brutally, silenced in a most inhuman way. Desperate to find answers, Rhea must determine who she can trust, as a powerful conspiracy threatens the people she loves - and perhaps the entire community.

After the Final War, after the appearance of the Bug aliens and their enforced peace, Shining Smith is still alive, still doing business from the old scrapyard bequeathed to her by her father. But Shining is now something more than human. And the scrapyard is no longer just a scrapyard, but a place full of secrets. This life she has built, while empty, is predictable and safe. Until the only friend left from her previous life shows up, dead, in the back of a scrapped Tesla warplane. Clutched in her cold fingers is a note to Shining - warning her of a coming attack.

Story
"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Editorial reviews
All the professional calm that Dr. Rhea Lynch learned in medical school deserts her when her closest friend suffers what appears to be a catastrophic stroke. Soon, Dr. Lynch learns that the stroke is more mysterious than it appears, especially when other patients start coming in to the ER of her small South Carolina hospital with all the same symptoms. Will she be able to find the real culprit in time? This is a fast-paced medical mystery skillfully narrated by performer Carol Hendrickson, who does an excellent and enjoyable South Carolina accent. Listeners who love feisty female heroines, medical mysteries, and tightly-plotted thrillers will enjoy this first installment of the Rhea Lynch series.

Story
Pepper is a rambunctious big man, and, suddenly, the surprised inmate of a budget-strapped mental institution in Queens, New York. He's not mentally ill, but that doesn't seem to matter. On his first night, he's visited by a terrifying creature who nearly kills him before being hustled away by the hospital staff. It's no delusion: The other patients confirm that a hungry devil roams the hallways when the sun goes down. Pepper rallies three other inmates in a plot to fight back: Dorry, an octogenarian schizophrenic; Coffee, an African immigrant with severe OCD; and Loochie, a bipolar teenage girl.

It should have been a routine investigation. Instead, DEA K-9 agent Adam "Deck" Decker watches in horror as one Denver hospital seems to be ground zero for overdoses of a new drug. Now Deck can only hope a certain ER doctor will help him and his canine partner track down the source. Dr. Tori Sampson has her reasons for not trusting federal agents, especially ones working for the DEA. But the rash of overdoses—including a heartbreaking case involving a teen—is alarmingly high. And the new opioid is not only extremely dangerous, it defies all the usual medical treatments.

Great Medical Novel. I will probably get more of
I always enjoyed this author's series about the world of medical examiners. This book is similar in style and the characters are pretty good. I would not rate this book as one of the best, but it is well worth the read.

Sustained suspense, fully developed, credible characters, good writing, and lots of interesting medical detail in this excellent mystery. Add to this authentic regional Southern regional realism for a unique work in its genre.
The narration was also first class.

Would you try another book from Gwen Hunter and/or Carol Hendrickson?
No
How could the performance have been better?
Maybe a better narrator.
Was Delayed Diagnosis worth the listening time?
Well yes but certainly won't read the rest of the series

Engaging
This is book one in the Rhea Lynch MD series. Dr. Lynch moved from Charleston to practice medicine in the ER of a small South Carolina hospital in Dawkin County.
Dr. Lynch returns from vacation to find her best friend near death form a stroke. Her family blocks Lynch from visiting her. Then a man is brought into the ER with similar symptoms, then another and another. A powerful conspiracy affects the entire community. Lynch discovers it is not a stroke but whatever it is, it was caused on purpose.
The pace is fast, lots of riveting ER action. The story is full of suspense, well drawn characters and a strong story line. I am enjoying this easy to read book that is full of suspense and humor. I have learned a number of southern expressions that I have never heard before. I am glad to have discovered the writings of Gwen Hunter. I read this as an audiobook downloaded from Audible. Carol Hendrickson narrated the book.

Good story, lousy performance
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Not with this narrator/reader.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Protagonist very engaging.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Carol Hendrickson?
Someone who does not have rapid pressured speech. She was almost aggressive in her narrative.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Not really. It was just a good story that kept me engaged despite the horrible reader.

Audible Review - Delayed Diagnosis
I love the book and have read it along with the others in the series before. I thought that getting it in audio would be great, a chance to enjoy the stories while working or driving my daily commute. I found that I do enjoy audio but did not like the voice of the person reading the story.. Though the characters are from the south, the individual reading the story used an accent that was very fake. I think it would have been better to have just been read without the accent.

Good Start To A Series
I just finished this book, and it is now one of my favorites. I love Ms. Hunter's descriptive writing style, and the detail in the medical situations is wonderful. I have been involved in medicine my whole working life, and have always been a big fan of Robin Cook. I am happy to say that Gwen Hunter has given me a new source of medical mystery novels. I have just started my third Dr. Rhea book and am looking forward to another captivating story!

Good one!
As a nurse I appreciated the fairly accurate depiction of the typical small town ER. It is fiction but tried to relay the real feeling . Looking forward to next book on series

Good book overall with one complaint
I really enjoyed the story and it was well narrated, but if I had to hear one more time about how dry the doctor's skin was and whether she was able to apply jojoba oil, I was ready to scream. I kept thinking that it was going to make sense in the end, but it wasn't part of the plot after all. Just annoying!
