I really enjoyed this book and the author’s writing style. There was one scene involving administering insulin to a diabetic experiencing hypoglycemia which I was quite disappointed in. With all of the research the author and her team presumably did prior to publication, this felt like a big miss. A minor detail in an otherwise classic “whodunnit.”
