Publisher's summary

"Last Patient of the Night is M*A*S*H* meets Detective Harry Bosch. It's a thriller that won't disappoint."—Gregory D. Lee, author of Stinger: An International Thriller

The death of a nameless young woman in his emergency room spurs physician AJ Docker to seek answers. Together with his policeman friend and a police dog, he sets out on a quest for justice for his lost patient, but he discovers more questions than answers as he delves into the criminal world.

Last Patient of the Night is an action-packed thriller interspersed with lighthearted stories from the emergency room, featuring a cast of interesting characters.

Gary Gerlacher's experience as an emergency physician lends authenticity to the ER culture. His debut novel is the first in the AJ Docker series, and will leave you on the edge of your seat.

Very entertaining

I enjoyed this right from page one. It was like reading a book about a superhero!

The humor mixed in with the thriller story.

First time reading this author and loved his book. I’m looking forward to the next one. The characters are so life like I can picture them in my mind.

Great medicine

Being in the medical field, I appreciate all the correct medicalese but also that it's not overwhelming to the non-medical reader. Love the characters - I feel like I've worked with every last one of them! The good, the bad (and the ugly) in these stories feel right and real.
You'll love Banshee. And pick up the next in the series, too!

Most Enjoyable

Can’t wait for book 2, and here’s hoping that Lawlor does the narration. Well written stories deserve the best voice actors.

While it started a bit slow, it was a good read and well performed. And the dog doesn't die.

Not a true medical thriller. Save your credits!

I didn't like the foul language.....it added nothing to the book. It has a "feel good" ending, which I liked....but the whole "doctor turns detective" was a little wonky to me. Also, I didn't think the narrator was right for this book. He had kind of a " sing- song" lilt to his voice that made it hard to take the book serious. I was disappointed, overall. I thought it was going to be a good medical mystery thriller....but it wasn't. I wish I hadn't used up a credit on this book.

Don’t waste you time.

Dialogue and narration juvenile. Story not much better. Last time I take a recommendation from FB.
