When two small-town doctors are murdered under similar circumstances, police suspect random act of violence no longer applies. Their discovery that each man lost a patient because of medical negligence strengthens their suspicion. Dr. Ellen Guthrie has struggled most of her adult life with the issue of professional accountability. The murders of her colleagues force her to confront both the issue and the killer head-on as her psychological clashes turn personal and physical.

I love a good who-done-it and Rx for Retribution is one of those and makes it better by having more than one murder and they seem to be tied to the medical field. Dr. Ellen Guthrie, a hospitalist, and Robert Simmons, a homicide detective, work together to attempt to discover who the murderer is. She has the knowledge of the medical field and he is the investigator. Together they compare notes. Also there are chapters that let you know what is going on in the mind of the killer, although you never know who he or she is. Sylvia Nash has a definite way of keeping you hooked to the book. You want to finish it just to see how it ends and find out who the murderer is. I received this book for an honest review.
