Brainstorm: A Medical Murder Mystery

By Sheldon Cohen

One Friday night in Chicago, two friends leave their neighborhood bar and go home. One man never makes it. Stabbed in the heart by a crazed assailant, the victim is brought to a nearby hospital. A respected young carpenter who seems to have it all-wife, children, friends-finds himself in the same hospital. Mysterious stomach pains, violent mood swings, and uncharacteristic forgetfulness have plagued George Gilmer. Though he remembers nothing, it was his knife that killed the man, his blood on the man's body. Brainstorm leads the reader into a world where the human capacity for evil extends beyond belief, into a world where it is hard to draw the line between insanity and innocence.

Customer Reviews

Twisty Mystery

This book has the most gripping twists of any suspense mystery I have read. Accurate medical and legal situations and facts are used throughout the story to create the drama of an emergency room combined with the intrigue of a murder investigation.

A good medical mystery

Dr, Cohen masterfully mixes medicine, mystery and murder. He certainly had me looking for a diagnsois to explain the unusual events in the novel. In reality, the denouement is far more complex and rewarding than that! I recommend that all medial sleuths and lay detectives read and expect to enoy the story. Congratulations on a fine first novel, Dr. C. !"
