Book 3 in the Dr. Abby Wilmore Series
In this riveting conclusion in the Dr. Abby Wilmore series, Dr. Abby has returned to her medical clinic in Grand Canyon National Park, happy to be reunited with her partner, Dr. John Pepper, and her staff, busy treating park visitors and personnel as well as local residents. But a wave of heart attacks among apparently healthy hikers creates a new puzzle, and soon there are rumors of a ranger selling performance-enhancing drugs. Abby’s situation deteriorates when a new female friend suddenly disappears, and Abby berates herself for missing the woman’s depression.
Meanwhile, Dr. Pepper is preoccupied by a mysterious threat from his past, then badly injured in an apparent fall. While he recuperates, Abby finds herself taking over much of the clinic work while they provide a home for Pepper’s troubled teenage niece and an adopted stray dog.
Abby soon discovers that something more sinister is at play and that a dangerous criminal might be behind the recent troubling events. In this exhilarating and terrifying conclusion, Abby must learn to confront her past in order to stand up for the ones she loves.

Sandra Miller is an author, poet, and retired academic family physician. She is the author of The Color of Rock and Where Light Comes and Goes.

She feels grateful to have helped launch hundreds of residents and students into their careers, and now encourages physicians to write creatively about their experiences. She enjoys the metaphor of living in Phoenix and rising from the ashes of her medical career as she now has time to devote to writing. You are likely to find her hiking with a dog or riding a horse, playing piano badly, or sitting under a tree studying her latest hobby, volcanology.
