Do No Harm: A Lucas Page Novel
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
In Robert Pobi's thriller Do No Harm, a series of suicides and accidental deaths in the medical community are actually well-disguised murders and only Lucas Page can see the pattern and discern the truth that no one else believes.
Lucas Page is a polymath, astrophysicist, professor, husband, father of five adopted children, bestselling author, and ex-FBI agent—emphasis on "ex." Severely wounded after being caught in an explosion, Page left the FBI behind and put his focus on the rebuilding the rest of his life. But Page is uniquely gifted in being able to recognize patterns that elude others, a skill that brings the F.B.I. knocking at his door again and again.
Lucas Page's wife Erin loses a friend, a gifted plastic surgeon, to suicide and Lucas begins to realize how many people Erin knew that have died in the past year, in freak accidents and now suicide. Intrigued despite himself, Page begins digging through obituaries and realizes that there's a pattern—a bad one. These deaths don't make sense unless the doctors are being murdered, the target of a particularly clever killer. This time, the FBI wants as little to do with Lucas as he does with them so he's left with only one option—ignore it and go back to his normal life. But then, the pattern reveals that the next victim is likely to be...Erin herself.

With its perfectly judged pacing, zingy dialogue, and ingenious plot, Do No Harm will, in Page's parlance, make your neurons sizzle. It's statistically improbable for Robert Pobi to do so many things right, but, as this book proves, not impossible."

June 13, 2022
Pobi’s strong third Lucas Page novel (after 2020’s Under Pressure) combines an unusual lead with nail-biting suspense. Genius astrophysicist Page, who left the FBI after suffering horrific injuries, has since devoted himself to his wife, Erin, a pediatric surgeon, and their five adopted children. But his hopes of leaving his crime-solving days behind are again dashed when his attendance at a foundation’s annual charity dinner to raise money for some of New York City’s poorest hospitals leads to a shocking realization. During the dinner, a memorial slideshow presents images of doctors involved in the charity who died in the previous year. Page believes the number of such deaths—30—in such a small subgroup of the city’s population signifies foul play and begins digging. Despite official findings of accidents, natural causes, or suicides, Page is convinced the doctors were murdered, and Erin urges him to investigate when a close friend of hers, who was at the dinner, apparently hangs himself. Page gets his former FBI boss to okay an official inquiry and delves into what links the dead doctors. The artful plot twists keep readers guessing throughout. John Verdon fans will be thrilled. Agent: Jill Marr, Sandra Dijkstra Literary.

Starred review from August 1, 2022
In Pobi's Under Pressure (2020), he used Manhattan as a stage setting for a series of hellacious bombings that left readers wondering if there was anything left of that poor island. The place seems undiminished here, but series hero Lucas Page isn't. Damaged by a blast, he must make do with an artificial eye, arm, and leg. Even so, the ex-FBI agent--he's a consultant now--with his spooky knack for finding the pattern in a mountain of disconnected details, remains game to go. So are his cohorts: long-suffering wife Erin, snarky colleague Whitaker, and boozy cop Russo. This time, Pobi has involved them in a plot so outlandish, so far-fetched, that readers will wonder why they're taking in the novel in great big gulps, turning pages as though tomorrow depended upon it. The plot? Somebody is murdering doctors. A dozen plus. No reason can be found. Page thinks they're connected and pursues the link through explosions, car chases, gunfights, and more murders, real and attempted. Pobi makes it work by offering a remarkable reading experience. The victims are people, not plot devices; their deaths are jarring but described with cringy, mordant humor (one victim's face "looked like it was on inside out."). The energy is relentless, and the writing is luminous.COPYRIGHT(2022) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
