Publisher's summary

After brain surgeon Dr. Danny Tilson performs several intracranial surgeries, patients and staff acquire a strange meningitis that sweeps nationwide at breakneck speed. The root of the outbreak is an enigma, and the CDC, a neurologist, and an infectious disease specialist are called in for their expertise.

Hang on for a ride as Dr. Danny straightens out his personal life while he is confronted with an epidemic of frightening proportions and consequences. The pandemic of the millennium has no cure in sight! And while Danny's colleagues, patients, and staff are falling dead around him, perhaps the most crucial question of all is: Why has Danny been spared?

Like ebola, Dr. Ebel's real and deadly organism in Silent Fear actually exists.

This is a standalone audiobook as well as book two in the Doctor Danny Tilson series of novels.

Book one of the series is Operation Neurosurgeon.

Book three of the series is Collateral Circulation: a Medical Mystery.

Cozy medical thriller

Any additional comments?

Pros: Nice writing style, lovable (or easy to hate) characters, good narration, easy to listen to. Cons: Story line rather sedate for a medical thriller, summed up as: A new disease, we cured it. I kept waiting for the big twist and the big action sequence, but it never came. If you like cozy stories, and you want a medical thriller without the hard-core gore, you'd like this book.

The Narrator Spoiled the Book

The narrator's sing song tones and ridiculous accents made the book impossible to enjoy. Her sentences just wander into each other. I couldn't understand one point to the next. She speeds up, then slows down with strange and ridiculous voices. Never again.

The author of this book should be furious with the production. I couldn't even listen to more than a few chapters- I will never buy a book read by this narrator again.

Please treat the author and readers with more respect. I feel like the narrator was just having her own private joke because I cannot believe how appalling she was

Don't recommend

There's too much fluff and not enough substance. Could just as easily have been a romance novel. Not impressed.
