Liza Larkin
When the stalkee becomes the stalker... "Rubin makes the most out of an uber-creepy premise in this superior medical thriller."âPublishers Weekly (starred review) âA knockout thatâs just what the doctor ordered for thriller enthusiasts.ââKirkus Reviews Liza Larkin, a recent med-school graduate on the cusp of her pathology internship, isnât like most people. She would rather study the human brain or pound the heavy bag at the gym than spend time with others, and as an outsider she doesnât let societal norms confine her. So when a strangerâs picture sends Lizaâs schizophrenic mother deeper into psychosis, Liza does a reverse-image search to identify him. Upon discovering he is a trauma surgeon at a Massachusetts teaching hospital, she impulsively changes her pathology residency program of choice to his center. She wants to be near him. She wants to know what heâs up to. She wants to protect her family. See you in the ring soon, Dr. Sam Donovan. The bell has rung.
