  No Apparent Distress - A...

  A brutally frank memoir about doctors and patients in a health care system that puts the poor at risk 
  In medical charts, the term “N.A.D.” (No Apparent Distress) is used for patients who appear stable. The phrase also aptly describes America’s medical system when it comes to treating the underprivileged. Medical students learn on the bodies of the poor—and the poor suffer from their mistakes. 
  Rachel Pearson confronted these harsh realities when she started medical school in Galveston, Texas. Pearson, herself from a working-class background, remains haunted by the suicide of a close friend, experiences firsthand the heartbreak of her own errors in a patient’s care, and witnesses the ruinous effects of a hurricane on a Texas town’s medical system. 
  In No Apparent Distress, she chronicles her experiences and the raging disparities in a system that favors the rich and the white. This is at once an indictment of American health care and a deeply moving tale of one doctor’s coming-of-age.

  On the night of Saturday, November 12, 2022, four University of Idaho students went out with friends, came home, and went to bed. By the time the sun came up, all four of them were dead.
   
  Madison Mogen. Kaylee Goncalves. Xana Kernodle. Ethan Chapin. Twenty and twenty-one years old. Stabbed in their beds in a quiet college town that had not seen a single homicide in five years.
   
  What followed was one of the most gripping true crime investigations in modern American history — forty-seven days of silence, a community holding its breath, and a forensic breakthrough so precise it reads like fiction. The man eventually arrested was not a drifter or a stranger to the area. He was a PhD student in criminology, eight miles away, who had driven past that house at least twelve times in the dark before he came back to kill.
   
  Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty. He was sentenced to four consecutive life terms. He has never explained why he committed these murders.
   
  In this book, I take you inside everything the headlines missed. The forensic breakthrough that cracked the case. The families in that Boise courtroom. The surviving roommate who opened her bedroom door and saw something she will never unsee. And the silence at the centre of it all that no verdict and no life sentence has ever filled.
   
  The case is closed. The truth is not.
   
  You have heard the case. Now hear the story.
