Pandemic

In Daniel Kalla's Pandemic, this thriller debut packs a bunch with a cross of a medical thriller and a military thriller combined in real life true topics in today's world. Dr. Noah Haldane was a doctor for the World Health Organization and travels the world, when there's a major epidemic health concern. While he dealt with his wife's affair and confused sexuality, he also wanted to be there for his young daughter Chloe. At the news of an outbreak in the Gansu province of China, he joins the other WHO doctors to deal with this major outbreak and contain it. After they had taken care of business, it wasn't the end of it. Hazzam Kizzir and Abdul Sabri have plans to spread this virus worldwide in an act of war, while Cairo Police Chief Achmed Eleish was on the hunt for Kizzir. When word had spread it had arrived in London, the world stood still and prepared for the worst. From there, that's when Noah met Dr. Gwen Savard who worked for the Department of Bioterrorism and joined forces to deal with this bad viral outbreak. In an instant, there's a chemical attraction between them, even after they've been quarantined for a few days. When they thought the worst would be over, it had spread to Asia, Canada and even the USA. That's when they come up with a plan to stop the bioterrorists and make a viable medicine to cure all before it's too late. In the end, it's a shocking ending to fight for their country, even if their lives depended on it.

This was a fantastic and mind-blowing medical thriler debut. I cared for Gwen Savard and Noah Haldane together and alone. I had found Gwen charming and full of life, while I worried about Noah's wife conflictions on who she wanted to be with. I did feel sorry for Chloe. I did  like some of the central characters like Duncan and Alex Clayton. I loved the various locations and settings throughout the world for this epic thriller to take place. It was very vivid and picturesque from every bright lit place to a dark corner. This would have you at the edge of the seat and leave you breathless from start to finish with non-stop action, drama, a spark of romance, and pleny of intrigue.

Blood Lies

If you love a shocking and twisted medical thriller, this one is for you. From debut author Daniel Kalla, he would take you to a thrill ride in Blood Lies. Dr. Ben Dafoe was an ER doctor in Seattle who was caught in the middle of a puzzling mystery. When his ex-fiancée was found hacked to death and murdered with another person, he became the spotlight of attention became of his personal connection. When his blood was found on the wall, it got creepier, he became a person of interest. From Ben's POV, he flashed back to the past and fights for the truth. Someone gunned after him and called him, while he remained on the run in Vancouver to discover the truth of his dead twin and posed as another doctor in Canada. As they got closer to Ben, his life became in danger, when there was someone who had a personal vendetta against him. It was hard for him to know who was to trust and who he shouldn't, with friends and allies to help him fight for justice to clear his name. And you would never believe who it was in the end with an explosive ending!

Wow. This medical thriller will leave you breathless and begging for more. I loved the Canadian and Washington state locations. It was so very picturesque and very well-written. It painted a vivid and beautiful image in my mind. I did feel bad for Ben and maybe for Aaron. I became a bit wary of the police. Without spoiling on who wanted revenged against Ben, I pitied him. I loved how he remained devoted on clearing his name and to his medical career. This would leave you want to read more of his work with every twist and snarly turn.
