Wednesday's Child

Deborah Shlian and Joel Shlian

This review is by Joan

Hartwood's children knew a secret. A bad, bad secret...

It was Leigh Novak's second chance. Leigh's first patient, a child, died mysteriously in her office. And soon Leigh was too busy to spend much time with Jeremy. It seemed her only friend was Nora - the woman who took such good care of the town's little children. When Nora started taking care of Jeremy, he stopped getting angry, stopped crying, stopped telling lies...

Nora taught her children to be very, very good. If they were bad, she punished them. And if a child was very bad, Nora made sure he would never cry again..."

Riveting! You won't be able to put this one down, I guarantee it! Wednesday's Child is a roller coaster ride of the first order. Loved it. Believable characters you care about. Suspense that builds and when you're already on the edge of your seat, the authors turn the heat up. A bang-up ending. A medical thriller that is a sort of Robin Cook and Mary Higgins Clark blend. Not a lagging paragraph in the entire book. You won't want to miss this exciting thriller.
