Last Patient of the Night

I’ve mixed feelings about Freida McFadden books.

But this one (2022) kept me going.

A woman wakes up every morning starting over again — something like a Groundhog Day experience.

She’s a practicing physician specializing in brain injury so knows what of she speaks.

Tess who suffers from a traumatic brain injury and severe short-term memory loss, not recognizing her own home or the man who claims to be her husband. 

After receiving a cryptic text message warning her not to trust the man calling himself her husband, the unreliable narrator, Tess, must piece together the truth of her life amidst a web of confusion and manipulation.

30th book in the Lucas Davenport series. Always entertaining.

The daughter of a U.S. Senator is monitoring her social media presence when she finds a picture of herself on a strange blog. And there are other pictures… of the children of other influential Washington politicians, walking or standing outside their schools, each identified by name. Surrounding the photos are texts of vicious political rants from a motley variety of radical groups.

It’s obviously alarming — is there an unstable extremist tracking the loved ones of powerful politicians with deadly intent?

But when the FBI is called in, there isn’t much the feds can do. The anonymous photographer can’t be pinned down to one location or IP address, and more importantly, at least to the paper-processing bureaucrats, no crime has actually been committed.

With nowhere else to turn, influential Senators decide to call in someone who can operate outside the FBI’s constraints: Lucas Davenport.

Masked Prey

I’ve been a big fan of the William Warwick books since the beginning.

Seem’s Archer is wrapping up with the 8th and final.

It’s good — but perhaps not as good as the early novels.
