‘My name is Darcy, I’m your nurse and I’m here to help you.’ I repeat the words I’ve said so many times. Except this time, I don’t mean it…

If you saw me walking down the street, you’d think I was pretty ordinary – I wear the typical crisp, white nursing uniform, my hands are scrubbed clean and you’d have no reason to believe I was anything other than a good citizen. A good nurse.

But looks can be deceiving. You shouldn’t trust me – because I don’t even know if I can trust myself.

Now I stare at the reflection in the mirror – dark smudges under my eyes and blood on my hands – listening for the sound of police sirens.

Because the truth is I had to do something terrible. I broke all the rules a nurse should follow. I wanted someone gone so badly. And now they’re dead because of me.

I’m looking over my shoulder everywhere I go because I’m sure someone knows my secret. Then when my home is broken into I know one simple truth: this isn’t over yet…

It’s only the beginning.

The police are the least of my worries now. But to save myself, am I going to have to kill again?

I’m thrilled to read the start of another series by Daniel Hurst!I always love a good #DanielHurst thriller. As usual, he steered this plot in a totally different direction than I suspected. I was highly entertained with the twists of this wild ride of a book.I’ve already started book 2!

Finding out how Darcy lost her memory was a terrific read. There were some twists that totally unexpected. As Darcy started to remember more, with help from her sister Pippa, the story took a turn. It was hard to put down my Kindle because l wanted to find out what happened next. Great story, you won't be disappointed. I look forward to seeing what happens to Darcy in the next book.

I always go in blind when reading a book. Only going off the cover. This book grasped me in from the start! I did not predict where it was going. I was very captured and wanted to keep reading to discover what continued. Having said this I feel the ending did not do this book justice. Although I see there is a second part hopefully that’s why this book was left with many loose ends.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Hurst’s best work
Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2024
Let me preface this review by saying I love Daniel Hurst’s writing style and his books. He has become an automatic read for me when he releases a new book. Unfortunately this book was a miss.

Darcy, the main character. is a nurse in Chicago. Right away I was excited because 1-I am a nurse and 2- living near Chicago and visiting frequently I was looking for some familiarity. Unfortunately none of this happened. I’m aware the author is from the UK but it seems he didn’t do much research into the Chicago area or US based nurses because much of the story and just general verbiage were really more UK specific and not at all what would be seen here. So the first half of the book was almost too painful to read.

The second half of the book definitely got more interesting once you learned what the twist was and what was actually happening. That was well done as always with Hurst’s books. But the rest of it was such a letdown it was hard for me to recover. My suggestion would be for the author to keep writing what he knows about because he does it so well.

Thank you to the author, NetGalley, and Bookoutoure for the advance reader copy. This is my honest review. Publication date July 1, 2024

I recently started having nurses come to my home and give me treatment. Then I went to the hospital for deep wound care, and I read this book while my IV meds ran.

Daniel Hurst easily pulls me into his stories, and now several nurses at the hospital , and 2 doctors, ask for updates from me about “The Perfect Nurse.”

Once again, I was fooled by the twists and turns in this fast paced story , and I was up reading late into the night as I got trapped in the “just one more chapter “ mode.

I thought I had it all figured out. I predicted almost everything pretty soon into the story. But then there’s a twist later on I didn’t expect. Enjoyable read throughout though.

I don’t like books that are based in America but this I found was so well written that it could have been in the UK. I loved the plot, didn’t see the twist at all. I had to read it quickly! So looking forward to the sequel. Love all of his books and long May he keep writing 👍🤗

The author set the book in the US while using British terminology and colloquialisms so the characters felt fake. It was tough to get through and predictable.
