Over the Edge by Brandilyn Collins, part 2

Hey, I finally finished this great suspense novel by Brandilyn Collins and knew I needed to finish my incomplete review form a month or so ago. This novel was terrific, and the story did include a strong spiritual component later in the story. What a fascinating MO—to have a killer knocking off his victims using a tick. Once the plot unraveled, I was impressed with the overall presentation. Completely. Way to go, Brandilyn! I look forward to your new novels from B&H. 

ABOUT THE BOOK

Torn from the front lines of medical debate and the author's own experience with Lyme Disease, Over the Edge is riveting fiction, full of twists and turns—and powerful truths about today's medical field.

Janessa McNeil’s husband, Dr. Brock McNeil, a researcher and professor at Stanford University's Department of Medicine, specializes in tick-borne diseases—especially Lyme. For years he has insisted that Chronic Lyme Disease doesn't exist. Even as patients across the country are getting sicker, the committee Brock chairs is about to announce its latest findings—which will further seal the door shut for Lyme treatment.

One embittered man sets out to prove Dr. McNeil wrong by giving him a close-up view of the very disease he denies. The man infects Janessa with Lyme, then states his demand: convince her husband to publicly reverse his stand on Lyme—or their young daughter will be next.

But Janessa's marriage is already rocky. She's so sick she can hardly move or think. And her husband denies she has Lyme at all.

Welcome to the Lyme wars, Janessa.
