About this listen
The explosive new thriller from New York Times best-selling author and master of the medical thriller Robin Cook.
Newly minted chief resident at Boston Memorial Hospital Noah Rothauser is swamped in his new position, from managing the surgical schedules to dealing with the fallouts from patient deaths. Known for its medical advances, the famed teaching hospital has fitted several ORs as "hybrid operating rooms of the future" - an improvement that seems positive until an anesthesia error during a routine procedure results in the death of an otherwise healthy man. Noah suspects Dr. William Mason, an egotistical world-class surgeon, of an error during the operation and of tampering with the patient's record afterward. But Mason is quick to blame anesthesiologist, Dr. Ava London.
When more anesthesia-related deaths start to occur, Noah is forced to question all of the residents on his staff, including Ava, and he quickly realizes there's more to her than what he sees. A social-media junkie, Ava has created multiple alternate personas for herself on the Internet. With his own job and credibility now in jeopardy, Noah must decide which doctor is at fault and who he can believe - before any more lives are lost.
©2017 Robin Cook (P)2017 Penguin AudioWhat the critics say
“Tantalizing.” (Publishers Weekly)
“Where Cook shines is in illuminating that combination of impersonal professionalism and potential terror haunting every hospital corridor. A return to form for the master of medical malevolence.” (Kirkus Reviews)
“Cook has been cranking out best-selling medical thrillers since the mid-1970s, and he long ago worked out a formula that works for his fans. [Charlatans] is no exception, proving once again that there is comfort and entertainment to be found in the familiar.” (Booklist)

Don’t judge Robin Cook stories by this book.....
Robin Cook is typically a great storyteller and if you are a Robin Cook fan I suspect you will be disappointed with how he attempts to wrap up the story. About 2/3 into the book where I am waiting for the drama to really explode this story gets that far and it seems to never really get to the drama i am waiting for, the book finally ends leaving me waiting for ...... George Guidell is a great narrator, but to me, it sounded like he was getting bored with the story about the same time I did.

Not the ending I would have expected
Robin Cook has disappointed again with the ending of this book, his last few books are just not the writing I used to love about his books. Was still a good book for activity throughout just very quick ending like in his book “HOST”
