Collateral Circulation

Dr. Danny Tilson #3

by Barbara Ebel

*****
A lavishly enriched blood supply piques Dr. Danny Tilson’s interest as he performs a routine surgery on Varg Dagmar’s brain. He soon discovers that it’s not just his patient’s cranial anatomy that’s remarkable, but his superlative mental capabilities as well.

As more and more patients surface with similar mystifying profiles, Danny searches for answers. If he can figure out the cause of this surge in intelligent IQs, the ramifications to humankind could be staggering.

Danny wonders, however. Is this mysterious brain power too good to be true?

Ehh.

After book two, which actually had a plot line, I was hoping book three would be better. It wasn't. Bummer

I'm finished with Collateral Circulation: Wow, another Barbara Ebel book that I could not put down. I love medical mysteries that don't have so much medical jargon that you don't understand what is being said but Barbara does it just right. This Dr. Tilson novel is so interesting when a supposed sports/energy drink causes some spectacular effects to the brain. Will the great effects last or will Dr. Tilson put a damper on the company making the drink.

Monster drink gone awry..


#3 in a Medical Mystery, Collateral Circulation. Wonderful reading,, I love the fact Danny accepted God and is taking little Julia to church with him. The research that went into this book is astounding, even if you are a doctor. This book shows how money hungry some people are, and how quickly a sickness can travel. Love this series. On to #4.

I really struggled reading this book, the story took so long to develop. The story is supposedly a medical mystery yet more time was dedicated to Danny's personal life than the mystery itself!

on the plus side, the mystery was good.

Interesting read, especially about unforeseen side effects of energy drinks.

Like all the Tilson series of books, this one is as captivating as all the others. Bravo to Barbara Evelyn!
