Unpacking the Facts behind the Fiction with Author L M Whitaker
This week, I sit down with author and registered nurse M.E. (Peg) Roach to talk about Robin Cook’s Bellevue. We explore what’s real, what’s imagined, and why sometimes the history of medicine is scarier than any paranormal twist. From first-year residency chaos to lobotomies and haunted hospitals, we dig into the facts behind the fiction — and the eerie echoes of medical history.
If you want to talk to Peg directly about Bellevue, join her on Nov 12 on the Mystery Book Club. Visit sallyhandley.com/bookclubs to learn how.
