    Frankenstein or The Modern...

    On a miserable summer trip to Geneva with her future husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, poet Lord Byron and a small group of friends, writer Mary Wollstonecraft was asked to participate in a game where the guests would create a ghost story and share it with the group. Everyone told their stories, but Mary's creation surprised them all. She had conceived of the idea that would later become her best known work, a tale of horror and creation, the legendary early science fiction classic: Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus.   
    The story tells the tale of Doctor Victor Frankenstein who develops a method to impart life to dead matter. Attempting to build something beautiful, Frankenstein instead creates a hideous humanoid figure and flees his creation in terror. The Creature, now abandoned, roams the country under cover of darkness and develops a deep-seated resentment towards humanity and his own creator. The two beings - the scientist and the result of his experiment - find their destinies intertwined as each attempts to destroy the other.   
    A Gothic tale of creation and the very meaning of being alive, Frankenstein is among the most revered early science fiction works and, over the years, the story has been adapted into dozens of stage, screen and television productions.

    In this new installment of Ken Bruen's beloved Jack Taylor series, the whiskey-swigging Irish detective investigates a series of violent attacks on the local convent's nuns. 
     
     
     
    Jack Taylor wakes up from a coma to discover that much of the world has changed since he last walked the streets of Galway. The pandemic had hit while he was under, devastating the lives of many in his beloved city and beyond. Now, as Jack tries to recover from the attack that put him in the hospital and absorb the incredible changes in the world around him, a woman approaches him with a distressing case: two local nuns have been bludgeoned by a mysterious man wielding a hammer, and more are sure to follow. As the police fail to act while the violence against the Sisters escalates, Jack seems like their only hope. 
     
     
     
    Initially wary of becoming involved in the investigation, Jack finds he cannot stay away from the mystery surrounding these vicious attacks. He also cannot shake a feeling of darkness that has haunted him since he awoke from his coma—a darkness that is far too close for comfort. Luckily an old friend is there to help see him through and there is always Jack's dark wit and a drink to help shore up his mood.

    On the night shift, death is scheduled. 
    When a "natural" passing on Ward C sets off a prickle of doubt, nurse Tessa Markov starts to see a chilling pattern: terminal patients are quietly reassigned to the same celebrated physician minutes before they flatline. Charts vanish. Codes arrive a little too late. Families are persuaded to sign what they don't fully understand. And the only other witness—a soft-spoken night janitor—saw something he shouldn't have. 
    As Tessa pulls at the threads, the hospital's routines turn into traps. Doors that should open don't. Alarms fail. Colleagues fall silent. Someone inside the system is practicing a perfect kind of murder—one that looks like mercy. And when a loved one lands in that doctor's care, Tessa's fight for the truth becomes a race against the clock. 
    Paging Doctor Death is a taut, claustrophobic medical thriller about power without oversight and the price of speaking up. If you crave relentless tension, a fearless heroine, and twist-knife reveals set in the fluorescent hush of a midnight ward, this pulse-pounding novel will keep you turning pages long past visiting hours. Read it for the razor-sharp stakes, stay for the final diagnosis you won't see coming.
