Reviews: Do No Harm (57)
“Here is a man writing women RIGHT”
(Paperback)
Jack Jordan is a master in writing moral dilemmas, while keeping his characters very real and believable. The three women whose perspectives we follow (a surgeon, one of her assistants, and a police officer) don't appear at first glance to have too much in common, but as the book progresses, their stories become inextricably weaved together. This is a page turner for the ages!
“Superb”
(Hardback)
This is an excellent book, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I was surprised at how good it was - I absolutely loved it, and it kept me hooked throughout.
The three audiobook narrators were amazing, and they played the parts of Anna the surgeon, Margo the nurse and Rachel the detective superbly. Anna is told to kill an MP while she is performing heart surgery on him. If she does this, she will get her son back from the kidnappers who took him. Margo sees Anna botching up the operation, but will she tell on her? Rachel is the one who is working on the case - will she be able to solve it?
The whole book was fantastic, fast paced, emotional and thrilling, and I raced through it, loving every moment. It is one of the best books I have read this year and I highly recommend it!
“Such an amazing read”
(Hardback)
Do No Harm is a tense and unrelenting thriller that had me hooked even before I started reading. As soon as I had seen the synopsis for this book I wanted to read it and it was even better than I expected!
I think the theming of this book would make it a great Book Club read as the decision that Anna has to make is somewhat controversial!
This is the first book I have read by Jack Jordan, but it will not be my last! I love the way he writes as it is so easy to read and connect to the characters, even when there is a lot going on it is easy to keep up with.
I definitely recommend this one!

“A riveting and compulsive listen / read.”
(Paperback)
Wow! Congratulations, Jack Jordan, this is a riveting compulsive listen. At times it was a squeamish listen, but, nothing that isn't necessary within the tale of a competent heart surgeon put in an impossible position; alongside a nurse who is experiencing her own challenges and a female detective working on a murder investigation who holds her own, dark, secret.
All three females are written so perfectly and the switch between each storyline is gripping. I practically listened in one sitting / walking, so gripped was I by all three situations and the switch between timelines and characters was executed perfectly. It's brilliantly narrated and has piqued my interest in audio books as a medium.
I felt the storyline and writing style had a Martina Cole / Lynda La Plante / James Patterson feel and I literally struggled to stop listening.
Anna the heart surgeon could be a frustrating character at times - I even shouted at her out loud! But, it in no way took away from my enjoyment and actually added to the authenticity of the listen. It's perfectly constructed with a fabulous, well wrapped up ending.
This is a wonderful story, so well told and it would make a fabulous film. Congratulations to the author.
