The Nurse: A gripping psychological thriller with a shocking twist

I normally wait for a story to simmer before even attempting to review. I figure I need some time to digest what I've read. And while this book is A LOT to digest. Like I mean, my heart is racing, my mind is racing and I absolutely devoured this book, and I want more. More from the author, more from the characters. Just MORE.Anyway, onto the review. J. A. Corrigan, I'd love to burrow myself into your psyche to discover just the nuances of your inner thoughts. Like I'm still stunned. And I'm still nervous. Terrified. Worried. Gobsmacked.The story begins with Rose, a woman convicted of murder. No one can believe she'd do something so insidious. She looks so kind, calm but do you really know what a person is capable of? Theo, a reporter, is adamant to get the truth.Throughout the entire story, I was shocked. And I have to say I'm not often stumped in thrillers. The themes of this book, the nail biting anticipations, the reveals. Everything was done with such class, I gobbled it up.This story discussed love, unrequited love that makes you do horrible things. It discussed loss, loss that damages and changes you into a person you didn't know existed.I could talk about this book for hours, and I will...Even the last chapter stunned me and made me gasp audibly. I'm not recommending that you read this book, I'm demanding it. And then after you do, track me down and let's talk because my mind is still racing!

This novel is well written through many engrossing layers. It becomes much more than a search for truth. It is a search for understanding of why the crime happened. And as that door of truth is opened, the intrigue is revealed smartly. Cleverly written on two distinct time lines assists the reader on becoming involved. Read it and enjoy.

Was slow to start but please don’t give up on this book. The twist & plot is mind blowing. Itssss soooo good.

Interesting book. Enjoyed the story line. Not as addicting of a book as I was hoping. But not a bad read

EVERYTHING WAS GREAT

I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good read.I would have never guessed the outcome. I have one question that haunted me through the whole story:Why did Abe have to die?Wonderfully crafted by the author. I look forward to reading other books by this same author.DiannaPhoenix,AZ

I read this book for a change of pace, and it hooked me into the story very quickly! It kept my attention and I read it in a day and a half. There are some errors in the book regarding medical issues, but overall the author does a good job with them.... if I wasn't in the profession myself, I probably wouldn't have noticed them, and honestly, it's not a big part of the book. It is a story that has a lot of twists and turns that will keep you guessing till the end, and maybe further.....

This was a good book.

I was hooked by this from the beginning, and my admiration for the author just grew as I read on. The plot, with all its twists (some predictable, others not) was credible, but the book's real strength is in the characters, as all of them are so well-drawn, even those who play minor roles. Very enjoyable, with a superb and unexpected but satisfying, conclusion.

“It’s amazing what people are capable of. You can’t go by what you see on the surface”.It is perfectly applicable for “Rose Marlowe”, a loving wife, a hardworking nurse and a “merciless killer”. A killer is what she is recognized as today by everyone. She is currently in jail for the same. 
Her case is somewhat a mystery, where she herself has accepted her crime, yet there are people who think she is innocent. Her case catches the attention of Theo Hazel-a true crime author, who wants to write her story. He approaches her through a letter and Rose agrees to talk to him. And, Theo starts meeting her in the jail and get her side of the story. A story which would change Theo’s course of life.Through, the story Theo realizes that whatever people know about “Rose” is just the surface. She is an innocent woman blamed for a crime which she did not commit, is what Theo thinks…, just when things become a bit clear, a new angle comes into picture…Now, the question remains, Is Rose innocent or a merciless murderer…Well, read the book to find out more…The Nurse written by JA Corrigan is a psychological thriller that keeps the reader hooked from the first page. While reading the book, the reader will get immersed in the life of Rose and start relating to her. But the twist in the end, will leave the reader shocked. Wonderfully written, the book keeps going back and forth, which keeps the reader on the edge. A perfect thriller for all thriller lovers.

Amazing read and very good twist. I would definitely continue to read the other books the author has written. Very well written

Excellent!!!! Congratulations to the writer!

Absolutely loved this book, couldn't put it down, lots of twists, even right till the end. Best book I've read for a while
