A police investigation into the murder of a young hospital nurse weaves through a southern community rife with self-indulgence, reverse sexual discrimination, cut-throat medical politics, and miserable souls. Before a psychopath can be stopped, another conflicted character will die. House Call was a Finalist in Mystery/Suspense in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards.

“tension-filled story … surprising conclusion … House Call is a murder mystery from the ‘get-go.’ Darden North, MD, may become to the medical mystery genre what Grisham is to the legal thriller.”
