As a doctor investigates her father's accident, she uncovers a deadly medical conspiracy in this thriller by the New York Times–bestselling author. Diagnosed with Aspergers, Dr. Thea Sperelakis has always been an outsider. Despite her brilliant medical mind, she fled the institutional politics of hospitals to work with the poor, embattled patients of Doctors Without Borders. But her rewarding life in Africa is turned upside-down when her father Petros—himself a renowned doctor—is severely injured by a hit-and-run driver. At a top-rated Boston hospital, Petros lays in a deep coma. When Thea returns home, she learns that two of her siblings are demanding that treatment be withheld. Even more unsettling are the mounting clues that what happened to her father was no accident. Yet would want him dead? The answers are trapped in his brain . . . until he looks at Thea and begins slowly to blink a terrifying message. In The Second Opinion, Michael Palmer has created a cat-and-mouse game where one woman must confront a conspiracy of doctors to uncover an evil practice that touches every single person who ever has a medical test.
