Inside Boston Doctors Hospital, patients are dying. In the glare of the operating room, they survive the surgeon's knife. But in the dark, hollow silence of the night, they die. Suddenly, inexplicably, horribly. A tough, bright doctor will risk his very life for a dedicated young nurse who unknowingly holds the answers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Realistic and captivating

As a Registered Nurse, I find many books placed in a medical setting are totally unbelievable. No such problem with (Dr) Michael Palmer. This was the second time I read THE SISTERHOOD, and although the ending was slightly different than I remembered, it still held my attention from the start. Highly recommend Michael Palmer's books. Another excellent author taken from us too soon. :(

4.0 out of 5 stars Believable, Good Medical Thriller with a Twist
Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2017

Michael Palmer has a talent for picking great storylines with a twist. The Sisterhood provided a believable -- and frightening -- twist written with all the plot twists and fun medical trivia Palmer is known for. Cleary he knows his profession as well as how to give readers a good, fast read. Its the kind of book that I could read late a night and not fall asleep.

I got it on the recommendation of one of my favorite authors, Ben Coes. I thought it was good, but not as exciting as the Ben Coes books! I like a little more action and adventure in books, but this was okay for a change!

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyed this book.

I did like this book. I was in nursing in the past and I think all nurses must at some time or another think of the suffering people go through and what is best for the patient. Although, I am not God and could never help patients in this way, I would wish there were ways to end their suffering. The book was written so I could easily picture the events and characters in my mind.

Enjoyed this book. I believe it started off slow, but picked up midway thru the book. A lot of surprises. Toward the end of the book, I didn't want to put it down. Did get confused about the names and people.

I bought this book after reading a true crime book about a nurse who was convicted of killing babies. This book was found in her locker and was used against her in court as it was about nurses killing their patients. At first you think it is meant to be a kindness but it becomes more sinister. The correlations between the true story and this fiction were chilling.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good first book
Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2012

Good book, perhaps too good. Not long ago an actual male nurse was arrested charged with his 'one man brotherhood', so to speak. After reading this book one wonders: did he act alone or were there more 'brothers' and/or 'sisters'. Was he inspired by this book?

Perish the thought.

Scary scenario if you are about to be hospitalized. Actually, only under certain circumstances very clearly explained in the book. I may have another serious surgery in 2013 but this is not going to discourage me from doing so...

3.0 out of 5 stars スピード感溢れる、能天気な医学サスペンス
Reviewed in Japan on January 4, 2004
Verified Purchase
白衣の天使達の善意をかぶった悪巧み、看護協会あたりから苦情がきそうなものですが、医師である著者の苦い実体験あってのことでしょう。（若いときに看護婦に苛められたとか、中堅医師にたってからベテラン看護師に面子まるつぶれにされたとか）ぎこちない濡場とか挟みながら、いつものPalmer節が展開され、頭をまったく使わないで楽しめる娯楽となっています。しかし、読後、頑固で古典的な医療をする医師に対する看護師達のアンチテーゼともとれるし、健全な常識を持たないものが理想主義に走る危険性を露呈しているともとれるし、いろいろ考えさせられます。よかれと思っている事が必ずしもいいことではない、というごくあたりまえの事が警告されているわけですが、それにしても荒っぽい筋の展開だな。しかし読みながらはらはらどきどきさせられるのも、残念ながら正直なところ。
