The subject of this novel is very interesting because a few months ago, I watched a documentary on the ongoing effect of head injuries in sports such as football and basketball. The effects of inner brain trauma experienced has not been on the agenda of coaches who usually send the player back onto the field as quickly as possible. As a result, sportsmen's lives have been impacted in later years by ongoing brain damage which may manifest itself in memory loss and other impairment.Barbara Ebel's neurosurgeon, Danny Tilson, is on the ball in this excellent medical plot. His daughter, Annabel's boyfriend, suffers what is seemingly a minor knock out during a basketball game. At first there doesn't appear to be any damage, but Danny tells the youth not to play basketball AT ALL. Annabel, who knows very well that her father has issued this edict, stands by while the boyfriend, disregarding the advice of her father, plays basketball with his mates and of course gets injured again. This rather silly girl then blames her father for what happens, but this is cleverly used to set up the climax of the plot.I am hoping that Dr Ebel is working on the plot for another Danny Tilson story because this saga is far from over!
Barb Ebel has written yet another great book in the Dr. Danny Tilson series. It's fill with interesting medical facts that really fit into our current time and a twist that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Thanks Barb, please keep writing more and more as we have fallen in love with this series.
Unfortunate young student gets hit in the head, twice, in a basketball game causing seizures. His girl friends father who is a neurosurgeon comes to the circuitous rescue after trying drugs and finally a surgical implant that ends the horrible seizure activity. Dr. Tilson is a good family man who loves his wife, dog, family but was snared into a love affair with a bimbo who just won't let go!
This is book 3 of a series. It deals with the family andall the complications that could go wrong. Your going to love this journey.
