The diagnosis buried her... and the truth with it.
When Vicky Sloane loses her unborn child in late pregnancy, the grief is shattering, but nothing prepares her husband, Al, for what comes next. In the sterile confines of a Sydney hospital, Vicky suffers a sudden, inexplicable psychotic break: speaking in tongues, lashing out, and hurling accusations in languages she has never spoken. What begins as a tragic obstetric case spirals into a medical mystery that neither doctors nor administrators seem able or willing to explain.
In the harrowing days that follow, Al struggles to navigate a wall of clinical indifference, evasive answers, and the creeping suspicion that something vital is being concealed. He moves between the operating theatre, hospital wards, and the couple's Lane Cove home, exposing cracks in the healthcare system and the fragile terrain of the human mind.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a visceral, heartbreaking, impossible-to-put-down story that combines medical realism with an unflinching look at trauma, love, and the fight for truth. It paints a compelling portrait of a marriage under siege, a woman on the edge, and a man determined to uncover what happened-before both of them are lost forever.
A scathing medical drama centred on the fragility of the mind and the failing state of healthcare today, Shadow of a Doubt by Eddie Russell is a gripping contemporary thriller... Blending elements of psychological thrillers, medical mysteries, and stark social commentary, the novel operates and succeeds on a number of levels. While the tone is somewhat uneven, the story is viscerally compelling, memorable, and heartbreaking, given the novel's brutal but accurate honesty. The Independent Review of Books
