A good story about a doctor being stalked by a killer. More information on her life as a doctor would have been welcome, and the book seemed to end somewhat abruptly. But a good, fast, entertaining read.

Someone is stalking Dr. Sarah Gordon. Recently widowed and living alone, Sarah lost more than her husband. She also lost her baby daughter, Jenny. Why then, would someone compound her grief this way? It started with hangup calls, then a fire was set in her garage while she was sleeping. As the danger escalates where can she turn for help?
Kyle Andrews was Harry Gordon's best friend. An attorney, he knows about grief from the inside since his fiancee died in a freak accident while doing mission work in Guatemala. When Sarah calls him for advice on speaking to the police about the fire, he drops everything to rush to her aid. The more he's with her, the deeper his feelings for her run.
Detective Bill Larson is called to the scene of the fire at Sarah's. As he questions the beautiful, articulate doctor, his interest is piqued. Recently divorced, Larson hopes to reconcile with his ex but that won't happen unless he can remain sober. As the pressure mounts and the incidents aimed at harming Sarah increase, can he find the strength to withstand his addiction?
This story had so many intertwined threads that it was sometimes tough to keep them separated. I loved how each of the main characters looked to their pastor for Godly counsel during their time of deepest distress. I also appreciated Mabry's emphasis from each character that inner peace has more to do with their relationship with God than on external factors. I also loved how obvious it was that the author is himself a medical doctor - the scenes in the ER where Sarah works pop with authenticity! I could almost feel the pressure they are under.
Readers who enjoy a good mystery or police procedural will enjoy Medical Judgement. There's a touch of romance for the romance loving reader but the main thrust of the book is in the mystery. I definitely recommend this!

I received a free copy of this book, from the publisher and author, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the publisher, Abingdon Press, the author, Richard L. Mabry M.D., and NetGalley.

I don't know if it was the time that I read this book, but it was not my cup of tea. It read much like an unbelievable movie. The main character is trying to move on from the death of her husband and daughter, and dealing with a stalker. The relationships in this book need work. They just aren't developed enough to be believable. the best relationship by far was the human animal bond.

Overall this was a good novel, not my favorite, but no where near my least favorite.
