Loved this book. From the blurb it really doesnt seem like something you could make 400+ pages out of. But it's gripping, it's emotional in places & overall just a good read.


I did have some issues with the whole being watched thing. I mean the first half of the book Anna was contacted a Lot and followed A lot but then it just seemed to suddenly stop happening. Cameras in her house but yet she gets another phone and they don't realise? Was a bit annoying on that part.

MASSIVE SPOILERS !!!!!!! 
I was shocked that  Anna actually set Margot up to be murdered??? it actually made me dislike her a lot more as a character. I just started to feel for Margot and understand her as a person and then just like that Anna destroys it. I can't help but think it could've worked out better if they had spoken to each other more and didn't ignore each other from their own biases. Was a bit sad honestly.

An amazing book, genre of book I don't normally read but it was so well put, placed and written it made me gasp, squeal and literally jump around the room especially with the plot twist at the end, I thought it would happen earlier in the book and when it didn't I just thought they were all cool,. But I was so wrong.  (It caught me so of guard). I adored every minute of this book and I cant wait to read more books just like it.

AD PR ⛔️ Do No Harm ⛔️ Review 

“My child has been taken and I’ve been given a choice…kill a patient on the operating table or lose my son forever. I’ve saved many lives. Would you trust me with yours?”👩🏻‍⚕️

⭐️⭐️💫 2.5 Stars

Thank you @tandemcollectiveuk @jackjordan_author and @simonschusteruk for sending me this copy as part of the readalong. 🥰

A really unique idea for a thriller from Jack Jordan. I too had that fear when looking at the anaesthetist before surgery, knowing you have no idea what will happen from that point. 😱

I enjoyed the short chapters and the tension build up to the surgery. That chapter had me hooked! I personally didn’t expect it to take the route it did, I’m not sure I enjoyed the second half as much. But it was a great debut. 👍🏻

This book was absolutely fantastic. It kept me gripped all the way through - so much so that I had to stop myself from going past each days pages! 

…. I did finish it a day early though because I couldn’t help myself ….

The short chapters helped build the tension and cliffhangers made you want to keep reading. The points where we were told to finish were always right as something juicy had happened and having to wait until the next day was a struggle.

I really liked the 3 characters perspectives - Anna, Margot and Rachel. They all helped to tell the story at different stages. I would’ve liked more about Rachel though, maybe a short story about what happened to Jamie as he’s repeatedly mentioned but we don’t really know what happened with that case.

My choice at the start of the book was to kill the patient. I thought that I’d change my mind as I found out more about who the patient was but I stick with my decision to save the child over the patient.

I highly recommend this book - a thrilling read! I’ll definitely be reading more by this author.
