Highly entertaining suspense thriller.
If you’ve read any previous books by this author, you already know you are in for a wild and unpredictable reading experience. McFadden can take a plot in directions that are completely unanticipated and sometimes over the top. Despite yourself, you just keep going and don’t want to step away until the conclusion. Most of the time, the characters are quite unlikeable and that was definitely so in this novel.
It’s a tough time for these students taking Anatomy in their first year of medical school. Between long periods in the lab doing dissection, interminable study sessions, very little sleep, impossibly close and intense relationships with each other, and add on the pressure of trying to get top grades — well, it’s not surprising that eventually something, or someone, breaks. In the previous 6 years, at least one student has committed suicide. But there are even worse things going on at this school.
The narrative is divided into different points of view and their individual stories provide quite the drama. Yeah it was a bit much sometimes, but I did have a lot of fun with it.
Listened to the audiobook and the narrators did a fabulous job voicing the characters and giving an excellent performance that enhanced my enjoyment. Have fun!
This is a standalone and is not part of any series.
