A great story - lots of twists and turns that keep you on the edge... towards the end it kept up well past my bed time, I just could not stop without hearing more.

I began listening to audio books as part of my walking therapy after a surgery. The books have to be very good to keep me walking despite the pain and this book certainly did a great job!

Gripping story, excellent delivery - I recommend this book highly.

The previous reviews which you have no doubt read are complete and utter codswallop. Regardless of the political bias, it is an interesting story with good characters and plot. With an excellent performance by Phil Gigante, you get a good sense of the many different characters and voices that an audio book reader must become.

Again, this is actually a good book to listen to ( I can only say listen because I have never read it) and I would suggest having a listen.

Don't trust the naysayers.

I've read a few other Palmer books, most of them enjoyable. However, Palmer's political bias is quite obvious in all of them. This latest book, FIRST PATIENT, is by far so politically biased in Dr. Palmer's point of views that it detracts from the story line and has become obsessive in his story telling. Unfortunately it destroys the ability to enjoy the story, even though this one is not the best to begin with. Don't bother wasting your money. Get it from the library if you feel you must read or listen to it.

This book stinks. It is so politically biased that I could not figure out if there was a plot. This is Boston Legal in book form. Don't waste your time or money on this tripe.
