Beschreibung

A terminally ill doctor battles crime and corruption in this medical thriller trilogy by the New York Times–bestselling author of Critical Condition. Farewell to Dreams: ER doctor Angela Rossi is struggling with insomnia when she receives a ghostly plea to save a missing girl. Aided by a police detective fallen from grace, Angela searches the midnight catacombs beneath the city, facing down a ruthless gang leader and stumbling onto a serial killer’s lair. Her desperate quest to rescue the girl leads her to the one thing she least expected to find: a last chance for love. As her symptoms escalate in bizarre and disturbing ways, Angie realizes exactly how serious her illness is. She might be dying, but she’s finally choosing how to live . . . A Raging Dawn: Dr. Rossi is diagnosed with Fatal Insomnia and given only a few months to live. She’d like to say her goodbyes to everyone and spend her last days on a deserted island. But first she must provide testimony in a rape case. However, on the day of the trial, the victim is murdered, allowing the rapist to go free—and motivating Angela to bring him to justice. With nothing left to lose or fear, she makes for a perfect vigilante . . . The Sleepless Stars: When Dr. Rossi discovers that her disease—and the disease she’s discovered in dozens of young children—is the creation of a mysterious cabal, she begins investigating the lies and betrayal that led the terrible epidemic. Meanwhile, Devon Price, a father of one of those children, is on the hunt for those responsible. He is willing to lie, cheat, steal, or even kill to ensure his daughter’s safety. But in the end, their only hope might be a desperate deal with the devil: the faction behind the epidemic. A deal paid with blood. A deal not everyone will survive. Praise for the Fatal Insomnia series “A remarkable medical thriller equal to the very best of Robin Cook or Michael Crichton. This intelligent, well-crafted novel, based on a startlingly original premise, builds up tension to the breaking point and beyond, delivering plenty of surprises along the way. Totally absorbing and impossible to put down.” —Douglas Preston, #1 New York Times–bestselling author “Farewell to Dreams has it all: a heroine you’ll never forget and a story that whips by at bullet speed.” —Tess Gerritsen, New York Times–bestselling author

The Only One Left - Key Insights

Ava Cross

This work provides a concise synthesis of the key insights and analysis of the book. It is an independent summary, not the original book, and has no affiliation with or endorsement from the original publication. Created for readers who want a clear, thought-provoking overview, it distills the central themes and ideas while preserving the depth and relevance of the work. 
Perched on a cliff battered by wind and memory, Hope’s End is a house built on secrets. In The Only One Left, a caregiver named Kit McDeere arrives to tend to Lenora Hope — a woman long accused of murdering her family decades earlier. Lenora, now mute and paralyzed, can only communicate by tapping letters on a typewriter. As she begins to dictate her version of events, Kit is drawn into a web of deceit, where truth and illusion twist together like the corridors of the decaying mansion. 
Each keystroke echoes with accusation and confession, and the more Kit uncovers, the more she questions her own sanity. Storms rage outside as the cliffs crumble beneath the house, mirroring the collapse of every certainty she holds. What begins as a story of care becomes one of obsession, guilt, and the terrifying realization that some ghosts are very much alive. 
A gothic mystery of memory and manipulation, The Only One Left captures the haunting tension between past and present — a chilling exploration of how the truth can destroy even the strongest foundations.
