Life Support

By: Tess Gerritsen

Narrated by: Megan Gallagher

From New York Times bestselling author Tess Gerritsen, a terrifying novel of deadly proportions as an ER doctor tries to determine the cause and cure of a fatal and mysterious virus before it becomes an epidemic.

The quiet overnight shift at Springer Hospital ER suits Dr. Toby Harper just fine—until she admits a man in critical condition from a possible viral infection of the brain. The delirious man barely responds to treatment—and then disappears without a trace. Before Toby can find him, a second case occurs, revealing a terrifying fact: the virus can only be spread through direct tissue exchange. Following a trail of death that winds from a pregnant sixteen-year-old prostitute to her own home, Toby discovers the unthinkable: the epidemic didn't just happen—someone let it loose....©1997 Tess Gerritsen.

I FELT - LEFT HANGING!

Would you try another book from Tess Gerritsen and/or Megan Gallagher?

Megan, yes. Tess Gerritsen needs to finish what she started.

What could Tess Gerritsen have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Left out LOTS of details necessary to make the story easier to follow. This is the only book from Audible that I've had to keep backing up (30 second rewind) in order to catch just what is going on. The end is the WORST! Not only were details missing, but I was still waiting to find out if Tobi was okay - HOW did she survive? WHEN did they find her - HOW did they find her? And, did Tobi and her sister HUG and CRY together? OR, did they just go their separate ways and hardly speak or connect again, now that their mother (who was their only common bond?) had passed.

Have you listened to any of Megan Gallagher’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No - but, I hope to.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Not one....

Any additional comments?

Can I have my money back?

Predictable

This book was difficult for me to get interested in. The story was so predictable. I found myself jumping ahead in my mind realizing what was next. It lacked suspense in every way and the narration did not help either.
