Rage: A Forensic Mystery and Suspense Thriller

By Lawrence W. Gold

Book Overview

Strange things are happening in Hillsborough, the affluent suburb of San Francisco: normal people without a hint of psychiatric problems suddenly become violent.None have motive for assault or murder, and being residents of Hillsborough is the only factor they have in common. While they remember nothing of their violence, observers describe their behavior as strange-like an automaton.Michael Rose, a forensic psychiatrist and his associate, Karen Scott, a clinical psychologist, study the subjects and these episodes. They suspect that this behavior is more than psychiatric, but fail to come up with a credible explanation. The legal and medical establishments scratch their collective heads about how to assign responsibility for these acts as advocates make their cases while Michael and Karen pursue the truth.Finally, Michael and Karen discover what happened, but we must await the climax and d nouement to understand. Rage, a mystery, crime thriller, is not only a 'who done it', it's a 'why and how done-it.'REVISED SINCE EARLY REVIEWS: I took early critiques to heart in this revision. FROM FIVE STAR REVIEWER 6/29/2014: This book gripped me and would not let go I have read almost every single book Lawrence Gold has written. I have yet to find one I didn't absolutely enjoy Rage does have medical components but is a stand alone novel apart from his hospital series.
