Publisher's Summary

'Dazzling' LIVING NORTH
'A superb debut, playing cleverly with the concepts of memory and loss' GUY MORPUSS, author of FIVE MINDS
'Will stay with you long after the last page' ADAM HAMDY

Genius. Maverick. Monster.

‘A place free of judgement… for a life free of pain’

Since his beloved wife died, Arthur has lost all hope. He doesn't care about his high-powered job, his increasingly distressed mother, his future... Even his therapist cannot help him with his grief. In desperation, his mother seeks out the only person who can: Dr Elizabeth Codelle.

Controversial genius, Dr Codelle runs the world’s most exclusive clinic. Eye-wateringly expensive, the clinic is located on a small private island and takes only one patient at a time - but it gets results. Codelle doesn’t just treat her clients, she claims to entirely cure them. And she is insistent that Arthur must stay on the island until he is all better.

Whatever that takes.

A hugely original, clever and thought-provoking thriller about one woman's vision and just how far you might go to cure grief.

Critic Reviews

'There are plenty of thrillers that keep you turning the pages, but only a few that live in your mind long after the final page is turned. Jack Anderson has written a thriller that is as intelligent, thoughtful and humane as it is compelling and addictive. A talent to watch' (Jessica Moor, author of Keeper and Hold Back the Night)

'Clever, poignant, twisted. The Grief Doctor is the epitome of a psychological thriller' (Sarah Moorhead, author of The Treatment)

'The Grief Doctor is a cracking thriller from first time novelist Jack Anderson. Expertly crafted and thoroughly engrossing, with its claustrophobia and air of stifling, building menace this book hooks you and doesn't let go. It also asks a serious question: Is it better to live with grief and all its attendant pain, or do without it' (Martyn Waites)
