I took a day to finish reading Exhume - Dr. Schwartzman Series Book 1, which was a gift from a friend, because I was able to receive Excise - Dr. Schwartzman Series Book 2 for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I do not want to give away too much but everyone needs to know about medical examiner Dr. Annabelle Schwartzman, patrol officer Ken Macy, homicide inspectors Hal Harris and Hailey Watt. This takes place in San Francisco and South Carolina.
Quick summary: Dr. Schwartzman is haunted by her estranged husband, Spencer Henry McDonald, who had a hidden dark secret, who caused her to lose their unborn child and refuses to grant her a divorce.
This book is different because it not only has so many twist and turns but mainly seeing that the Dr. Schwartzman has to assist in finding out who was the murderer after she underwent a double mastectomy and getting chemotherapy treatments. She ends up back to the cancer ward because the first victim is her oncologist. He was killed by ingesting the chemical that is used to treat her disease.
This series is a must read and I cannot wait for the 3rd and hopefully not the last book of Dr. Schwartzman series.
