The Handle Method
Avery Handle planned to change the world one troubled patient at a time. He was well on his way to accomplishing just that when a string of murders struck Houston.
A world-famous physician trying to bury his own personal demons, Handle found himself an unlikely target of two determined homicide detectives.
Trapped in a web of his own design and struggling to keep his dream alive, Handle decided no cost was too steep to protect his secrets and his patients. Even if it meant putting his own life on the line.
