The Surgeon

Your life is in his hands... Exactly where he wants it.

When an eminent surgeon is arrested for murder, he knows he didn’t do it. He knows what it’s like to feel a person die on his operating table, but he didn’t inflict the wounds that ended the life of the girl they say he killed.

So, when the real perpetrator comes forward, and he is released, he feels vindicated.

What nobody knows - not the officer who arrested him, nor the influencer who petitioned for his freedom, nor the girl who escaped a killer years before - is that while he was incarcerated, he was making a plan.

Because revenge is sweet. But murder is sweeter...

A totally twisty and gripping suspense thriller that fans of Daniel Hurst, TM Logan and Frieda McFadden won’t be able to put down.
