When the mystery surrounding her death is connected to the newly appointed chief of surgery, head nurse Amber Brooks is quickly drawn into a web of lies, deceit, and intrigue. Because the prime suspect, Dr. Nelle Toussaint, is Amber’s good friend and she is positive of her innocence, she becomes an amateur sleuth who is determined to clear Nelle’s name and find the real murderer. To aid in her quest, she enlists the help of Frank Peyton, a surgical resident, and Harry Gage, a retired cop and hospital security guard. Amber’s path takes her from homeless shelters to an out-of-state convent and eventually back to the hospital’s board of directors, where the truth behind the woman’s murder is found to be more convoluted than the cover-up.

Why is government getting it so wrong? Richard Bacon and Christopher Hope delve into the astonishing world of cock-ups and catastrophes and ponder why those at the top continue to fall short.

Download or read book Thinking Again A Diary written by Jan Morris and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan Morris, one of “Britain’s greatest living writers” (Times, UK), returns with this whimsical yet deeply affecting volume on life as a redoubtable nonagenarian. The irrepressible Jan Morris—author of such classics as Venice and Trieste—is at it again: offering a vibrant set of reminiscences that remind us “what a good, wise and witty companion Jan Morris has been for so many readers for so long” (Alexander McCall Smith, New York Times Book Review). “Like Michel de Montaigne” (Danny Heitman, Wall Street Journal), Morris waxes on the ironies of modern life in all their resonant glories and inevitable stupidities—from her daily exercise (a “statutory thousand paces of brisk walk”) to the troubles of Brexit; her enduring yet complicated love for America; and honest reflections on the vagaries and ailments of aging. Both intimate and luminously wise, Thinking Again is a testament to the virtues of embracing life, creativity, and, above all, kindness.
