Do No Harm by Jack Jordan

3.0

mysterious tense fast-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Fast paced with short chapters and 3 main POVs made it a very easy quick read which I completed in 2 sittings!

I enjoyed the writing style with the details provided - particular in the surgical scenes. I found the main character Dr Jones interesting though wish we had more depth

Like why she suffers from Trichophagia and her triggers

- the other 2 POVs of Rachel and Margot were a bit lack luster.

I had very high expectations with the plot but felt a little let down as 2 of the 3 POVs are provided to create these sub plots which just felt surface level and a bit disappointing and the main plot twist was something I did predict at the 70% mark so wasn’t as impactful as it could have been.

The fact Margot was never pregnant - this realisation just feel so flat for me in the end. The request of Dr Jones about killing Margot as a final betrayal was a bit predictable given we knew that she wanted to talk in private with the gunmen and had already established she didn’t have the blackmail money

I did like the final chapter resolve a lot at it did give an eeriness to the end of book which I liked but overall I feel that it would of been a stronger story if focused on delving deeper into Dr. Jones’ POV instead of the other 2.
