About this audiobook
Saving Meghan is a riveting new thriller full of secrets and lies from author D.J. Palmer.
Can you love someone to death?
Some would say Becky Gerard is a devoted mother and would do anything for her only child. Others, including her husband Carl, claim she's obsessed and can't stop the vicious circle of finding a cure at her daughter's expense.
Fifteen-year-old Meghan has been in and out of hospitals with a plague of unexplained illnesses. But when the ailments take a sharp turn, clashing medical opinions begin to raise questions about the puzzling nature of Meghan’s illness. Doctors suspect Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a rare behavioral disorder where the primary caretaker seeks medical help for made-up symptoms of a child. Is this what's going on? Or is there something even more sinister at hand?
As the Gerards grow more and more suspicious of each other and their medical team, Becky must race against time to prove her daughter has a deadly disease. But first, she must confront her darkest fears and family secrets that threaten to not only upend her once-ordered life…but to destroy it.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5We meet Becky as she’s on a plane to Los Angeles to visit her dying mother for the last time. She gets a text from her husband, Carl about their 15 yr old daughter, Meghan. She’s in the hospital after fainting while playing soccer with her neighbor, Holly’s kids. Becky then freaks out screaming that she needed to get off the plane. An undercover Air Marshal then arrests her for interrupting a flight video. She’s subsequently removed from the plane and videoed as she leaves. She’s then let go and rushes to the hospital and her daughter. Drs don’t seem to think anything is wrong with Meghan that is until a cardiologist and a neurologist see Meghan. They then come to the conclusion that something could be wrong with with her heart or it was a seizure. More doctors appointments are to be made for Meghan by her mom in the morning.
This audio was a twisty mindf*ck. I loved it. Highly recommend
