title: Dead Still (Dr. Annabel Tilson Novels) (Volume 1)
author: Barbara Ebel M.D.
description: <b><span>Featured in <i>Louisville Medicine </i>Magazine!</span></b><b><span></span></b><span><br /><br />"Dr.Ebel, an anesthesiologist herself, skillfully centers this medical mystery in the Anesthesia department." Her protagonist, Annabel Tilson, "makes a name for herself as an independent thinker, who is compelled to get to the bottom of several completely unexpected post-op deaths involving her patients."<br /><br />In the beginning, "as we follow the progress of our heroine, there is an 'everydayness' about her actions and behavior, including a very modern, high risk behavior, which is balanced against the ultimate goal that she has set for herself, i.e. becoming a doctor."<br /><br />When Annabel "becomes a medical sleuth, we are treated to some hard-core pharmacology and physiology ... which is very authentic ... and kept me reading all the way!"<b> -</b> <b><i>Louisville Medicine</i> Vo. 64 No 6, The Greater Louisville Medical Society</b></span><br /><br />"Author/physician Barbara Ebel's strength lies in two directions: her medical expertise (which lends and insider's viewpoint to proceedings) and her ability to depict the winding path and challenging choices (medical student) Annabel faces beyond the routines of learning how to be a physician.<br /><br />Whether it's how hospital and career pressures and politics are handled or why Annabel chooses certain paths, <i>Dead Still's </i>well-rounded attention to building characters against the backdrop of the medical milieu in which they interact makes for a powerful, well-done story line that really challenges readers to think.<br /><br />Fans of Robin Cook may be used to medical intrigue, but the added doses of issues of personal, ethical, and professional survival will very much satisfy those who like their medical mysteries endowed with a sense of personal growth and moral grounding." <b>- Diane C. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review</b>
