The Nurse

Do No Harm…

Bullied, overlooked and under-appreciated, Lissa McColl learns at an early age to do very bad things.

As a nurse, she is respected and valued for the first time in her life. But Lissa hates her job and the selfish, rude and inconsiderate people she has to deal with.

But being underestimated in this job had its advantages. Lissa can get close to people, find out their secrets… sometimes with deadly results…

REVIEW

This story didn’t take the turn I thought it was going to! Lissa did bad things when she was 10, she watched her bully die at her hand and covered it up as an accident, fast forward and now she grown she is a nurse and still feeling under appreciated in her role at the agency she is working for. She meets fellow nurse Sarah who seems to be like Lissa, a killer? perhaps, but she is definitely on the cusp of oath they take to Do No Harm. Sarah has the cushy agency work of a residential whilst Lissa is still doing nursing homes, and she is trying to get the agency to give her those jobs but so far she hasn’t been successful. When Sarah asks for Lissa to giver her and hand for 10mins one morning Lissa discovers evidence that wife may be tampering with her husbands medication, but keeps that to herself for the time being in the hopes of using it as a form of blackmail.

Only Lissa has it all wrong and soon her life might be in danger, or at least she thinks it is! This was a read that like I say didn’t take the turn I thought, I thought it was going to be a serial killer nurse but what we get is a sinister tale.
