Summary

Do No Harm…

Bullied, overlooked and under-appreciated, Lissa McColl learns at an early age to do very bad things.

As a nurse, she is respected and valued for the first time in her life. But Lissa hates her job and the selfish, rude and inconsiderate people she has to deal with.

But being underestimated in this job had its advantages. Lissa can get close to people, find out their secrets... sometimes with deadly results...

Critic reviews

'A wonderful book, I can’t rate this one highly enough. If only there were ten stars, it’s that good. Valerie Keogh is a master story-teller, and this is a masterful performance.' Bestselling author Anita Waller

I loved it!

This is the first book I’ve listened to by this author but it won’t be the last! Somehow I got attached to the main character even though she’s a murderer, 🤔 but as with all good thrillers, the end took me by surprise. Well written and nicely narrated.

Good storyline but some loose ends

I did enjoy the story. It was interesting and I’m still mulling it over.. It’s called the nurse but which one is it about?
I loved the plot twists and the twists and turns but just some of it wasn’t really tied up at the end. There was a death that felt it wasn’t really being investigated, else I’m sure they’d have found the killer.
There was a character who came in to visit who didn’t really add anything to the story, and didn’t need to be included really. Just for the protagonist to throw them out and let them know she wasn’t interested.
It’s a shame that there are these loose ends.
I liked that it wasn’t the story I thought it would be as it was a surprise. It definitely could have been longer as the ending felt a little rushed.
I would, however read or listen again as I think the story was very clever.
I’d still recommend it. The gaps have you ticking it over and hoping for a sequel.

Fabulous

I don’t normally read fiction, but just a few paragraphs in I was hooked. Fantastic writing and the narrator was excellent. Looking forward to reading more of Valerie’s books.

Another great book by Keogh

Great story, great narration. Knocked one star off as it drags a little in the middle, with nothing much going on.
