Delayed Diagnosis

Pretty good!

To come back from vacation and find that your best friend is near death would dishearten anyone, including me. But when Rhea checks on her, things don't add up between the paperwork at the hospital and what she sees. I can't blame her for going the extra mile to find out what happened to her best friend.

Lots of suspense keeps you turning the pages - well after you should be in bed sleeping. One thing leads to another, and while each thing only strengthens what Rhea believes is going on, the 'why' of it is explained at the end, proving that some people will go to great lengths to get what they want.

I liked Rhea - stubborn to a fault, she digs and digs, unrelenting, even after the situation heats up and she becomes a target. I liked that stubborness and courage, even when faced with the most awful of things.

And I liked Mike. Similar to Rhea, they are a pair made for each other and I can't wait to read more about them. You feel the spark between them, the tension that the author intends for you to feel.

All the characters are likable, and the ones to hate you hate appropriately. The action scenes are great, whether being attacked or being saved. The ending came as a surprise. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, the one person I couldn't and wouldn't think of actually did the unspeakable. Incredible, terrific, can't wait to read the next!
