Bad Medicine Volume 1
Five years ago, world-renowned physician Dr. Randal Horne retired after causing the demise of Rebecca, one of his patients. Now, haunted by her death, Horne has been called upon to assist NYPD detective Joely Huffman in an investigation involving a physician he used to work with, a corpse with an invisible head, and a possible werewolf infestation. Given Horne’s relationship with one of the main suspects and the previous death, will his assistance help or hinder Huffman’s case? Science, forensics, paranormality, and the unexplained collide in this fast-paced, well-drawn, and entertaining title. The mysteries and resolutions of this first volume are satisfying, and the mock reports from the Centers for Disease Control and fake Post-it notes are special touches that draw readers further into the story of this promising new series.
