Thank you to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for providing me a copy of this ARC! I really enjoyed Black Widows by this author and the premise sounded really interesting, but unfortunately I was just not impressed or engaged by this book. None of the characters really seemed to have enough "soul" for me to care about what happened to them. The mystery through the middle of the story was interesting but the ending was so far-fetched I found myself rolling my eyes. Sadly, I can't recommend this title.

I don't want to say too much about the plot for risking of spoiling, but I will say: "Whoa." There are so many interesting elements to the writing, from the author's descriptions of rehab to Meg's poker strategy to the facility itself. As far as twists go, there are a LOT. I suspected a few, but overall, the story keeps you guessing. My only complaint is that the very end dragged out a bit. but that's a minor thing.

What a crazy ride. When Meg learns that her estranged sister has died in rehab, she is sure that there has been an error. Her very selfish and famous sister would never take her own life. Meg decides to take a (somewhat forced) hiatus from her undercover job with casinos to go into the rehab and find out more. The fact that Meg has her own issues with substances makes it both easier and harder. As an undercover agent of sorts she begins to learn more about the very exclusive and expensive clinic and the cutting edge work they are doing. The problem is that they seem to be unregulated and experimenting on their own clientele. Will Meg find out what happened to Haley? Will she survive the Clinic? If you like a gothic mystery, a twisted medical prison story or just love a complicated heroine, The Clinic is for you! #Sourcebooks #Landmark #TheCLinic #CateQuinn

While I don't think I have read "Black Widows", I really enjoyed "The Clinic". I own her first one so I'll be going back to read it as well.

Wow! This book had me on my toes throughout the entire thing! I read the whole book in less than 12 hours. It was that good!

3.5 stars. I generally love an isolated clinic story, but this one was a little disappointing. I think that the reason I was not feeling this story was due to all of the modern elements in the clinic. I am more partial to historic or historic leaning clinic reads.
