Saving Meghan

Saving Meghan by D.J. Palmer. New York: St. Martin's Press, 2019. 372 pages. **** 

A mother will do anything to find out what is wrong with her only daughter and to find treatment. Has Becky, Meghan's mother, gone too far in her quest to find what is causing Meghan's sickness, especially since her own husband doesn't believe her? Meghan has been in and out of hospitals and doctors wonder is this a case of Munchausen syndrome by proxy and who is to blame Becky or Carl? Fifteen-year-old Meghan has her own secrets and raises suspicion that she may be faking her illness to get her parents attention. When one of her doctors dies under suspicious circumstances, Becky's illness takes on a more ominous tone. The doctors take drastic action to keep Becky safe, is it enough? Becky's life depends on it. 

A psychological thriller with a unique plot that will keep you guessing as to who is lying and what is really happening with Meghan. I love being swept into a book and reading it all in one sitting. Fans of B.A. Paris will enjoy reading Saving Meghan.

I received a paperback copy for a review.
