The Doctor Synopsis

A gripping, pulse-pounding medical thriller that will have you holding your breath until the final jaw-dropping twist. Perfect for fans of Valerie Keogh, Freida McFadden and Doctor Foster.

Care giver, life saver… or cold-blooded killer?

Running away from a past she'd rather forget, Doctor Alison Wilson has moved to a new town to take up the role of Medical Officer at failing hospital St Margaret's.

Tasked with shaking things up, she quickly learns that things are worse than they initially seem: patient records are in disarray, staff morale is low, and there's something afoot that she can't quite put her finger on…

As Alison starts to dig into the hospital's past, she gradually discovers a trail of lies that runs deeper and darker than she could have ever imagined.

There's a cold-blooded killer in the hospital. And they're hiding in plain sight…
