Robin Cook, MD, is the author of more than 30 books and is credited with popularizing the medical thriller with his groundbreaking and wildly successful 1977 novel, Coma. He divides his time among Florida, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts.
“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
