Deadly Errors

Review”A thriller that only a doctor could have written. Wyler’s sense of the worlds of the hospital and operating room are unsurpassed. You’ll feel as if you are right there.”—Michael Palmer, New York Times bestselling author of Miracle Cure and The Sisterhood”Deadly Errors has a fascinating and frightening premise that gives it the potential to be a bestseller in the Robin Cook mold.”—William Dietrich, author of Hadrian’s Wall”Deadly Errors is a wild and satisfying ride! An up-all-night pass into troubled places that only hardworking doctors know about, a turbulent world of trusting patients and imperfect humans struggling with the required image of perfection. Only a gifted surgeon could craft such a wild and wonderful med (more…)

    Among medical thrillers, the most frightening plots are those in which anyone who enters the hospital could become a victim of the malevolent forces driving the story. Deadly Errors is that kind of book. The idea of a computerized quality control system gone haywire so that it randomly changes medication orders with lethal consequences is about the worst kind of scenario a prospective patient could face. Even in Coma, the book that started the medical thriller genre, there was some selection process in choosing the victims. Here, if you’re checked in, you could be next. It’s a great hook for a story.

    I was also impressed with the writing. The author is a neurosurgeon. That alone doesn’t automatically mean he would know how to write hospital scenes that drag the reader into the action. But I can tell you this, Wyler certainly has the knack. Outstanding.

    Wyler is also great at the quiet scenes that involve emotional conflict between the main character and his wife. When I read those sections I didn’t feel as though I was reading a made-up story. It seemed real to me. No writer can do better than that.

    So I’d say Wyler is off to a fine start. More please.

    Dr Wyler has hit the nail on the head with his accurate and revealing descriptions of the interaction of physicians in the operating room. The story line is very convencing and suspenseful. Not unlike a Clancey novel. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this ‘medical thriller’.

    The author, Dr. Allen Wyler, has successfully wedded the computer industry and the medical profession in a tightly woven novel that keeps the reader involved from the first page.
    Surgeon Dr. Matthews is struggling with a sinking marriage while trying to discover the real cause of patient’s deaths. A new company has joined his hospital, offering a sophisticated software program designed to track medications for the benefit of both doctor and patient. Dr. Matthews believes a bug is in the system which causes errors but cannot locate the right contacts to address the problem. The hospital judges his skills, or lack of them, to be the cause and he is released. Wyler has the enviable talent to present medical information that is easy to understand by a non-medical audience.
    This is a fast paced novel that engages the reader from the first page and carries through, well written and carefully plotted with believable dialogue and characters drawn with a fine pen.
    Reminisent of Faust, where the frailties of human nature can present a heavy burden to both sides of good and evil, this book keeps the reader guessing to the very last.
    Highly recommended for those mystery readers who like to pick up some education while reading an intriguing novel !
