The New York Times bestselling author and master of medical suspense delivers another shocker of a thriller filled with insider details and a terrifying psychopath

Four murders.

Three accidents.

Two suicides.

One left.

THE LAST SURGEON

Michael Palmer's latest novel pits a flawed doctor against a ruthless psychopath, who has made murder his art form. Dr. Nick Garrity, a vet suffering from PTSD – post traumatic stress disorder – spends his days and nights dispensing medical treatment from a mobile clinic to the homeless and disenfranchised in D.C. and Baltimore. In addition, he is constantly on the lookout for his war buddy Umberto Vasquez, who was plucked from the streets by the military four years ago for a secret mission and has not been seen since.

Psych nurse Gillian Coates wants to find her sister's killer. She does not believe that Belle Coates, an ICU nurse, took her own life, even though every bit of evidence indicates that she did – every bit save one. Belle has left Gillian a subtle clue that connects her with Nick Garrity.

Together, Nick and Gillian determine that one-by-one, each of those in the operating room for a fatally botched case is dying. Their discoveries pit them against genius Franz Koller-the highly-paid master of the 'non-kill' – the art of murder that does not look like murder. As Doctor and nurse move closer to finding the terrifying secret behind these killings, Koller has been given a new directive: his mission will not be complete until Gillian Coates and Garrity, the last surgeon, are dead.

La víspera del día en que Evie va a ser operada, su esposo, el doctor Harry Corbett, va al hospital con la esperanza de reconciliarse con ella tras una época de indiferencia y mutismo. Pero cuando llega a la habitación de Evie ya es demasiado tarde. Sin nada que hubiese podido hacer temer por su vida, Harry se la encuentra muerta y se convierte así en el único sospechoso del asesinato. Unos días más tarde, sin embargo, la mano asesina vuelve a actuar de modo tan audaz como desafiante, pero sólo el doctor Corbett sospecha que las muertes no se están produciendo por causas naturales. Empieza aquí una lucha desesperada para desenmascarar al monstruo homicida que tiene en jaque a todos los pacientes del hospital.

Michael Palmer ha conseguido una sobrecogedora novela de intriga médica, un impresionante thriller protagonizado por el médico más siniestro aparecido en la literatura de terror desde los tiempos de Hannibal Lecter.

Il dottor Rutledge ha la certezza che ci sia qualcosa di sospetto nelle morti dei suoi pazienti. Troppe banali influenze degenerate in incomprensibili complicanze non hanno lasciato scampo ai malati. L’uomo nutre un sospetto: che nell’evoluzione fatale delle malattie sia coinvolto il giacimento di carbone, la cui aria nera copre il cielo della sua città, nel West Virginia. Ma presto il dottore capisce che le sue indagini lo stanno portando a scoprire segreti molto più pericolosi di quanto potesse immaginare.

„Има един случай, който не ми дава покой нощем — единственият, който ми се опря. Случай, който винаги присъства в съзнанието ми и ме изяжда отвътре. Няма значение, че от тогава са минали десет години. Екзекутирана бе невинна жена. Трупът на Кристофър Томас бе открит полуразложен в средновековен уред за мъчения. Съдът набързо реши, че в пристъп на ярост съпругата му го е убила…“

Инспектор Джон Нън е убеден, че е допусната съдбоносна грешка. Разрешаването на този случай е последният му шанс да изкупи и собствените си грешки, но зловещите сили зад смъртта на Кристофър няма да се спрат пред нищо, за да накарат миналото да замълчи завинаги.

Двайсет и шест майстори на трилъра пишат по една или две глави в този уникален литературен експеримент. В резултат на общите им усилия се наслаждаваме на един експлозивен екшън, който може да бъде създаден само от най-добрите автори в жанра.

Книга, в которой собраны произведения самых талантливых и известных американских писателей — мастеров остросюжетного жанра. Среди них такие громкие имена, как Ли Чайлд, Джеймс Роллинс, Кэтрин Нэвилл, Стив Берри, Дэвид Моррелл. Каждый из этих авторов написал рассказ, воплотивший в себе наиболее яркие особенности и достоинства жанра. Тридцать рассказов — тридцать шедевров!

When Christopher Thomas, a curator at San Francisco's Museum of Fine Arts, is murdered and his decaying body is found in an iron maiden in Berlin, his wife Rosemary Thomas is the prime suspect.

Long suffering under Christopher's unfaithful ways, Rosemary is tried, convicted and executed. Ten years later, Jon Nunn, the detective who cracked the case, becomes convinced that the wrong person was put to death. Along with financier Tony Olsen, he plans to gather everyone who was there the night Christopher died and finally uncover the truth about what happened that fateful evening. Could it have been the ne'er do well brother Peter Hausen, interested in his sister's trust fund having got through his own; the curatorial assistant Justine Olengard, used and betrayed by Christopher; the artist Belle who turned down his advances only to see her career suffer a setback; or someone else all together?

No Rest for the Dead is a thrilling, page-turning accomplishment that only the very best thriller writers could achieve.
