Overview

In his five bestselling novels, from The Sisterhood to Natural Causes, physician Michael Palmer has drawn on years of firsthand emergency-room experience to create the drama of a frighteningly authentic world--a world where the line between medicine and murder is scalpel-thin.nbsp;nbsp;Now, in his most harrowing suspense novel yet, Palmer reveals how the power to heal can become a license to kill....

With his wife, Evie, scheduled for surgery the next day, Dr.nbsp;nbsp;Harry Corbett goes to the hospital for what he hopes will be a quiet evening of reconciliation.nbsp;nbsp;In recent weeks Evie, never quick to share her feelings, has been more closed and distant than ever.

But when Harry reaches Evie's room, it is too late for reconciliation.nbsp;nbsp;Shockingly, without warning, Evie is dead.nbsp;nbsp;The police suspect homicide.nbsp;nbsp;And their only suspect is Dr.nbsp;nbsp;Harry Corbett.

Harry is not prepared for the stunning revelations that follow: His bright, beautiful, highly ambitious wife was leading a double life; she may have had
dangerous secrets.nbsp;nbsp;But what secret could have been explosive enough to die for?

Then the killer strikes again, boldly, tauntingly murdering one of Harry's favorite patients in such a way that only Harry knows the death was not natural.nbsp;nbsp;This time Harry is certain: The killer, medically sophisticated, coolly arrogant, moving undetected through a busy urban hospital, could only be a doctor.nbsp;nbsp;And he wonders--how many more will die?

Desperately Harry probes deeper, following the only clue Evie left.nbsp;nbsp;What he finds is a sinister pattern that threatens patients in every hospital in the city.nbsp;nbsp;Harry is engaged in a life-and-death battle of wits with a chillingly efficient monster.nbsp;nbsp;And until the doctor is unmasked, no patient is safe from his lethal silent treatment.

Michael Palmer has done it again, delivering a no-holds-barred novel of medical intrigue-- a gripping thriller that features the most terrifying physician
since Hannibal Lecter.nbsp;nbsp;Silent Treatment will keep your pulse racing from beginning to end
